Not sure how they do their cameras, I had a problem with one of their
printers; they sent me a new one with a prepaid shipping label to return
the old one with -after- I got the replacement because it was less than 30
days old. Like I said I don't know if they do this with their cameras? I'd
think they would -replace- a camera that died that quickly rather than
making you deal with having it repaired? You could check with the place you
bought it to see what time frame they have as far as returns?

Camera has died. It must be returned to Canon for repairs or replacement. Send
it via your wife if that is easier. There is no other fix.
