Shawn,

This is usually associated with a lens problem in the camera. I would recommend contacting Canon for support. This can be a costly repair if your camera is no longer under warranty though.

Shawn,
Before you call Canon, please visit the website www.e18error.com. This is a common problem and many Canon owners have compiled this website, which lists why it's happening and explains many possible methods to fix it yourself for free. It is really, really worth taking a look!
