    Default Canon HF M41 Video Image Malfunction

    My M41 started showing the following flashing picture interference when used in Manual mode:



    In Auto mode everything looks fine. I sent the camera off to Canon for repair but I'm curious if anyone has experienced this also.

    It took Canon some time to repair the camera but today I received an e-mail saying that they replaced "Printed Circuit B", that everything is alright now and that the camera is on its way back.

    I first thought it might be "Printed Circuit A". It just shows how wrong one can be!

    Yeah if it's not "Printed Circuit A" then it's almost ALWAYS "Printed Circuit B"... you never can tell with those "Printed Circuits"... they're a real mystery! Happy you're happy I'm happy... Happy Happy Day!
