Canon's A-series cameras were (and are) prone to developing a noisy squeal when the shutter is fired. The problem occurs when the lubrication on the mechanism dries out over time. The fix is to relubricate the offending parts. While there are instructions (available online; do a search) for doing this yourself, you can create worse problems if you get oil or grease where it doesn't belong. I've had cameras with the problem, but I chose to have a professional CLA (clean, lube, adjust) done to the camera.
I have an ae-1, The shutter speed is the dial on the top right side with all the numbers and the word "program" on it. Program is idiot-mode: used just to snap shots. In bright daylight use higher speed like 1000 or 1600 and in darker situations use like like 100. anything under 60 requires a tripod, for a clear picture. The speed can be so slow, that camera will allow you to set the speed slow enough that it could take a full minute to take a picture.

Your canon s21s power shot digital camera will not show anything on the display execpt a squar box and will not take pictures does anyone have a sugestion?
This is a huge problem with the S21s by Canon. IT doesn't do any good to call Canon. They tell you to reset the camera back to default, as if we didn't do that already. Then they will tell you to send the camera in to their service dept. They will contact you on what is wrong with the camera. They will tell you, "you need a new screen and the chg's and labor are $190.00. The camera is only 3 yrs old and they won't recall this huge problem. You tell them, no don't fix it, I am going to contact BBB. Then you send a letter to BBB explaining what is going on and there are many complaints about this problem with this camera. BBB will contact Canon, Canon in return will call you and fix the camera for free. there ya go, takes a little bit of leg work, but hey...you just saved $190.00
