[QUOTE="BF Hammer, post: 808989, member: 48483"] Elaine, if the camera is new to you it could be wise to move past the no LiveView bit and see exactly what works and does not work. You may just have a broken camera. You may just be missing something in trying to activate LiveView. But my move would be to use the viewfinder and try taking photos. Start with the mode dial on top set to "Auto". Can it take a photo and allow you to review it? Does pushing the "menu" button activate the menu on the rear screen? Can you review any photos on the rear screen. If those all work, maybe try to revisit the LiveView and it could be you activate the part that was missed before. Or it could just be broken. Another thought, the battery could be exhausted and needs a recharge. [/QUOTE]
