I know the camera has only been out for 6 months or so but I'm just doing a bit of research to see..Maybe canon have fixed this problem with 2004 camera models?Any comments/thoughts greatly appreciated CheersIan Reply to thread Reply with quote Complain AdamT canon lens error • Forum Pro • Posts: 58,440 Re: E18 error on s410 anyone?
