Unfortunately, even when the items I sent the problem with the battery indicator. Flashing red after using the video function - to turn on the camera again everything's alright. The product number is on the 6th position a "4" which is why a firmware update is not possible / necessary. Furthermore nervendes pipes in video recordings which cover almost the language in the recording This pipe was found in the unit sent to me even when holding the camera in a specific position. The photos are really great and also the video recordings are of good quality (apart from the pipes). However, I do not want a single euro spent on an immature product. Have until now various Canon products had, including the old Ixus 60 (in operation still) and the SX 200 IS that should have been reimbursed due to a focusing problem through the SX 270. Now I will probably have to look for another brand. The camera goes back definitely - pity
