    Hi there, newbie here. I just got a second hand camera as above to start out with.

    The camera worked fine for about 2 hours then it just cut off. I recharged the battery and it will not switch on now.

    I went and got two new batteries and a charger and it still won’t switch on.

    Is there anything I can do to get the camera to switch on
    Cheers Cammy

    Welcome to the forum. Cammy .Not much other than cleaning the contact, it would be cheaper to get another camera.

    Make sure the battery door and the memory card door are both properly closed, if either of these are open then the camera will not turn on.
