I had this continuous beep issue a while back after my 4T had been sitting
unused for month. I'll revisit the issue and see if I can come up with what
resolved the problem. As a quick thought, check that you have got the two
new button batteries inserted the right way in the cavity space on the base
of the camera......the " + " side of both batteries facing upwards towards
the screw down cavity cap.
