Canon PowerShot G7: Camera no longer turning on

Wed, 27 May 2026 16:59:33 -0700

my friend took her Canon Powershot G7 to a repair shop as her camera isn’t turning on anymore. They told her that there’s no issue with the battery and it is probably an electrical problem. However, since the camera is old now, he won’t do the repair. I wanted to ask if anyone has experience in sending their Cameras to be repaired to individuals who are experienced in repairing older canon cameras (preferably somewhere in Europe)

Canon PowerShot SD1200 IS: Canon Lens Will Not Retract

Mon, 25 May 2026 13:43:12 -0700

For context, my friend gave me this ixus 95 (Sd1200) camera to keep, and it said to replace the battery so i charged it up, and it worked fine. When i tried to use the autofocus function, since it was still blurry, it wouldn't work, so i kept trying and eventually the camera effectively crashed, leaving the lens extended, now every time i power it on, it does a couple clicking noises then hands me a lens error. I was looking at the lens and the gap between the lens itself and the casing it a little uneven. I want to know if there is anyway to fix it. (for added context, my friend had it in their room for a while and its been a while since they tried turning it on.

PowerShot G7 X Mark II: Bought used. Significant liquid damage. Black and green images

I’ve replaced mother board and all corroded ribbon cables. Every thing works except for the images and on the screen is half black and half green. I think the lens’s surrounding electronics got also damaged. Not sure if anyone has this problem.
