How do I stop the Quick Control screen from staying on the LCD on a Canon 60D?

On my Canon 60D, the rear LCD now shows the Quick Control screen whenever the camera is on. After I take a photo or review an image, the camera returns to that screen instead of leaving the LCD black as it used to. Is there a setting to get back to the normal behavior where the LCD stays off unless I need it?

I believe this is one of the modes you enable by pressing the INFO button. If you repeatedly press INFO to cycle through all the display modes you will eventually arrive back to the default mode which turns the LCD off.

Yes. On the Canon 60D, this is usually just a display mode selected with the INFO button. Press INFO repeatedly to cycle through the available rear-screen display modes until you return to the one where the LCD stays off during normal shooting.
So this is not typically a fault or a major setting change—just the active display mode. Once you cycle back to the default display, the screen should remain black except when reviewing images or accessing menus.
