Re: Canon GL1 Loses Power/Shuts Down

[Mike Trzaskowski] "I take care of my camera so it isn't exposed to prolonged harsh conditions or getting wet, etc."

Indeed, but the camera is now almost 9 years old. Possibly an internal intermittent main battery connection. Make sure the contacts on the outside are in good shape. If they are and you're still having issues then it's time to send it in for repair. Depending on how much you like your camera will depend on whether or not you send it in to Canon. It's pretty much guaranteed that the repair will cost much more than the camera is worth considering its age. Might be time for a new one.

If you know of a repair facility close by you might ask them to have a look at your GL1 first before you make a final decision on a course of action.
