I keep getting an error 99

I tried to take some pictures with my camera recently and it keeps giving an error 99. I tried cleaning the lens contacts, I even tried using a different lens as I have 3 for this camera that didn't work. I tried a different CF card as I have 3 of these also and that didn't make a difference. I have tried with the flash and without the flash, even tried without a lens at all and everything I tried resulted in an error 99. I am going on vacation in 2 days and would like to resolve this myself if possible or I won't be able to take the camera with me. Please help

I had the same problem, especially when I use the flash. The problem in my case is that the camera got wet (just a sprinkle of rain while a Disney). Now every time the flash pops up, I get the error. My solution so far has been to use an external flash. Hope this helps

It seems to be shutter unit fault.
