    i removed the card and the E18 still pops up. canon said it was a shutter malfunction. and that a low batery shut down could have caused it. i charged the battery and tried again, no go. next step will be warranty.

    sorry eriks its an E18 not EJ18. lol. anyway the problem is solved. when the camera was shut off with low battery the shutter didnt close all of the way. so i let my dad take a crack at it. one smack on the desktop and it works perfect.

    hehe, i know. i was just kind of scared about doing it to a digital camera, being its kind of a delicate thing, not a computer or car part.
