Err 99

After producing many quality images the DSLR is dying! I have been getting this message about shooting not being possible. Went on to Canon forums to check out this Error 99 message. Seems like plenty of users all over have met with such a problem at some point. Lots of people believe this to be a quality control issue at Canon's production facilities.

Been cleaning the camera body and lens contacts. Sometimes the problem goes away, sometimes it doesn't. I'm feeling unhappy because this is the DSLR failing me at a crucial time like this.

But in better times, these are some of the pictures it has been instrumental in producing.

And now, this is getting to be a drag. It can still take pictures, just that this randomly occurs and the only way to resolve it is to reboot the whole camera.
