Hi,

Does anything show on the screen when you press the DISP button?

Try taking a picture (I realize that you cannot “see” what you’re taking) and then download it to a computer.

If the picture is OK then there is a problem with the camera’s LCD screen.

If the picture is just a black image, then there’s a problem with the camera’s image sensor or the motherboard
