i have a canon rebel t2i after snapping a picture the red busy light in the bottom right corner comes on and stays on until i pull the battery out. when i put the battery back in and look for the picture it says no images. does anyone know how to fix this? i have reset all settings and formated the sd card.

Does this happen in Auto or Manual mode? Does it happen after using the flash or regardless of whether or not the flash was used? One final question - what is SD card rated at speed wise (Class 2, Class 4, Class 10, etc.)?

The red light will light up showing the photo you have taken is being written to the SD card from the camera's buffer.

Maybe you have a super slow card and are trying to shoot in RAW? SD Card is damaged?

The T2i is not known for having a good buffer either....
