Default god dammit v.2

Some of you may remember my vivitar digital camera broke. Well, I returned it and got a Canon Power Shot. It was more money with less megapixels but I figured it would be worth it.


Well, I just turned it on (haven't yet) and no freakin image comes up. I can change setting, but no startup image comes up and I can see nothing in the viewer. Grrrrr.

Even funnier, you were right.


I wasn't expecting to have to change anything like that, which is why I called their customer support. Its working now h:

:reechy:

I had a feeling that's what it was. It's usually turned on initially (mine was, anyway).

The Vivitar was totally broken, at least. I'm just glad I don't have to go back to the store again and loose my faith in Canon.
