I'm trying to decide between the A75 and the A95 at this point. They've both received decent reviews from Consumer Reports, but there's no mention of any E18 problems in their reviews. Just trying to get some feedback. Thanks!

are experiencing the same problem that I was. If you’re not yet familiar with the E18 error, check out this information on the topic from Wikipedia: The E18 error https://www.cnet.com/forums/discussions/canon-e18-error-56917/ is an error message on Canon digital cameras. The E18 error occurs when anything prevents the zoom lens from properly extending or retracting.[1] The error has become notorious in the Canon user community as it can completely disable the camera, requiring expensive repairs. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E18_error) This is a fairly prevalent problem with the PowerShot cameras, and a class https://blog.wolffmyren.com/2008/10/23/e18-error-fixed-canon-powershot-sd450/ action lawsuit was filed (but dismissed) against Canon: A Chicago law firm, Horwitz, Horwitz & Associates, has already filed a class action,[4] while the law firm of Girard Gibbs & De Bartolomeo LLP are investigating this camera flaw and may issue a class-action lawsuit against Canon.[5] There is at least one other.[6] Although the suit was dismissed in a court of law, the plaintiffs are appealing. Fortunately, at least in my case, the fix did not require returning the camera to a Canon repair facility or having to take unreasonably complex steps. My solution for the PowerShot SD450/IXUS 55 follows: (You’ll need a very small Philips head screwdriver, #00, to remove the screws) There are six screws holding the metal frame of the camera body together, two on each side, and two on the bottom. Remove all screws, pop the strap-hook plate (sorry, probably not the most technical term there), then gently lift the front plate off by pulling up from the bottom, and remove the back plate

Anyone who knows how to fix this problem?? i have seen and read in one of the previous posts here some solution : :::::::::::::::E18 Error Remove existing batt.and CF card. Allow internal memory to run down overnight. Replace existing battery w/ NEW BATT. Insert NEW BATT.Switch camera on. Insert CF card.

This error of Canon cameras prompted a law firm from California- Girard Gibbs & De Bartolomeo LLP to file class suit against Canon.
