For me, it turned out that the card caused the problem. Putting another SD card fixed the problem. The moment I insert my original SD card, error comes up right away.

mao ba bro? sa original nga sd card mag error?

I think its a general error code, kung windows pa, blue screen of death. Usually, its the lens to body contact, but it could be something else like battery problem or memory card problem. How to fix it... please read from the entire thread.

mao ba bro? sa original nga sd card mag error?

Ako pasabot sa original bro kay katong card nga originally naa sa akong cam bah.. pag ilis nako lain card, okay na dayon. then pag balik napud nako sa katong card (nga mao ako gigamit nga nag cge cya error) kay mubalik napud ang error. So na isolate nga card ang naka cause sa issue and nothing wrong with both my cam and sa lens.

pero sa question kung common bani, ubay ubay ako nakita sa net nga naka encounter ani nga error..

Update #2
To isolate the cause of the issue, i suggest that you do the following:
1. Turn off the camera.
2. Remove the lens, battery, and CF card.
3. Allow the camera to sit without power for approximately 20 minutes.
4. Insert a fully charged battery, and turn on the camera.
5. Depress the shutter button as you would to take a picture.
Does the “ERR 99″ message appear? If it does, then the camera should be
serviced. If it does not, then please proceed to the next set of steps:
1. Turn off the camera.
2. Insert the CF card.
3. Turn on the camera.
4. Format the CF card in the camera.
5. Depress the shutter button as you would to take a picture.
Does the “ERR 99″ message appear? If so, then the CF card is the most
likely source of the issue. Try using a different card.
If the message does not appear, please complete the following steps:
1. Turn off the camera.
2. Clean the lens contacts by gently rubbing them with a pencil eraser
or soft cloth. Be careful that you do not let any debris fall into the
camera body.
3. Reattach your lens.
4. Turn on the camera.
5. Depress the shutter button as you would to take a picture.
If the “ERR 99″ message only appears when one particular lens is
attached, then that lens should be examined by a service technician.
If you see the “ERR 99″ with a different Canon lens attached, then the
camera should be serviced.
