Persistent Error 99 code on Digital Rebel XT: Has anyone encountered such a problem and got a solution without sending the unit back to Canon?

Send it back ASAP As it in warranty as Error 99 is a general error some time due to a out of range setting in manual mode setting in the camera, bad lens and flash mounts plus more one thing to remember digital cameras with auto lens are very complex thing Thus more things to go wrong. Canon makes a ton of these, so some can be bad which is why we have warranty's

I just got my camera back from the Cannon Factory and they said found that it was an internal issue, they replaced "something" and sent it back and it works just fine! Sorry this isn't a more helpful post for those of you without a warranty! I'll keep looking through my paperwork at home and see if they were more specific AT ALL in stating what the mystery "something" was that didn't work. Just wanted to update as I promised I would!

I got one with the same defect and just returned it to Amazon. I called Canon and they told me it was defective.

Thanks very much to all. I upgraded the driver with file C13D0DRIT_V10SP5.exe (55MB) from the Canon USA support driver site and the C130 proceeded immediately to perform batch scanning as one would expect. I think my software was an early version(?) Thanks again.

I have the very same problem. There must be some type of program error. I did a lot of research and gave up. I just pull the SD card and plug into my PC. There was no warranty on my camera when I found out it would not work with my PC or TV.

It could be the camera is triggering the flash, which is possible for Canon. Check the flash setting and make sure it's not set to trigger the flash.

I truly don't know, that's a shame. Have you tried tricking it by turning it on WITH the lens cover still on, like it's saying, and then removing it to see if the message goes away? Then see if it functions normally after that. Other than that, I have no ideas or suggestions, sorry. I haven't had this problem. I'm sure a local camera shop could help you troubleshoot, possibly even for free if it doesn't require a repair. :)

I'm using an Olympus card (Fuji and Olympus created XD), but anyone's XD card will work.

I see you're getting various answers. I also did what you are trying to do. The best advice I can give you is to contact Canon & ask them. That's what I did & they got me on the right track. Lots of luck.

Hello, I had no problem. I didn't even format it. I just put it in and it worked. Are you sure it's the right card for your camera. Maybe you should return it and try a new one. It may be defective, or call the manufacturer customer service.

Hi this card will not work canon eos rebel xt. You will need to get a compact flash card. Found this when I was googling the Camera:What kind of memory cards does the Canon EOS Rebel XTi use?All Canon Digital Rebels use CompactFlash (CF) Card Type I & II memory cards, which are currently available in capacities of up to 8-gigs. Hope that helped answering your question.Kavz

Yes, I had an error code come up before. I had to do a reset and replace with new cartridges. But my printer still works fine. Considering ordering this product again. I have an HP Photosmart C7280. But also be aware or which supplier or seller that you are ordering these cartridges from. That really makes a difference.

That is awesome! I called almost 2 years ago complaining about this problem and they basically wanted to sell me an upgrade for a $100 discount - terrible! Will be sending my camera back asap. Has anyone sent it back already and gotten a replacement? Would love to hear your story!

Hi, thank you so much for the speedy reply! I have performed a reset on the camera, as well as removing both the battery pack and the watch battery, to no avail. I did think of trying an external flash unit, and am currently trying to borrow one from a friend who has a genuine Canon unit to see if this will work. I have also contacted a UK Canon-approved repairer to get a quote, so I should hopefully soon know how much I can expect to pay. Thanks again for your help in the matter. Kind Regards, Andy

I had no problem aside from it taking quite a bit of time. You might want to call Canon and see if they can determine what the issue is.
