Canon G9 blinking green indicator light

hi Kenny.
With most cameras, an amber, yellow, or red light indicates a battery that's currently charging. A blue or green light usually means the battery is charged. A blinking light sometimes indicates a charging error; other times, it indicates a battery that is still charging.or faulty battery.
have you tried,take the battery out and then put it back in?.
make sure the battery is seated.and its making a good contact.

Unchargeable defective battery would do that. Sulfation in the battery. Replace battery. 10 to 20 bucks.

On both my Canon camcorders the blinking green light just indicates the camera is successfully charging the battery. If it doesn't go off the battery may be bad.

If Try one or more of the following

Ready light does not turn on and the camera does not work.

• Turn on the camera (Turning on the camera).

• Install new batteries (Loading the battery) or charge rechargeable batteries.

• Turn camera off, then back on.

Ready light blinks green.

• Camera is operating normally.

Ready light blinks amber.

• Wait. Resume picture taking when the light stops blinking and turns green.

Ready light blinks red and camera turns off.

• Install new batteries (Loading the battery) or charge rechargeable batteries.

Ready light glows steady red.

• Transfer pictures to the computer (Transferring pictures with the USB cable), delete pictures from the camera (Deleting pictures/videos), switch image storage locations (), or insert a card with available memory (Using an optional SD/SDHC or MMC card).

• Wait. Resume picture taking when the light turns green.

• Change the image storage location to internal memory (), or use a different card.

Ready light is off or glows steady green.

• Camera is operating normally

There are two stages to the shutter release. The first stage is the focus stage pressed half way down and the second stage is the actual shutter release. Always press the shutter half way to get the camera focused first then press all the way down when the camera is ready to take the shot. Check to see how the settings are with regard to how it focuses (9-point, face recognition, etc). When the camera focuses you should get a green box or multiple green boxes depending on your settings. That tells you the camera is ready to take the picture. Pressing the shutter all the way down at once from the beginning will cause the pause you describe since the camera has to first focus then shoot the picture. Depending on the subject or subjects the camera may take a second or two longer to focus. With good lighting my G9 focuses pretty fast. Hope this helped.
