I bought my 11 year old lad a pre-owned Sony DSC H400 camera as he was keen to try photography as a hobby. He's been using it and enjoying the hobby but recently there has been an issue with the camera.

It seems to change 'modes' on its own, randomly. He's not accidentally nudging the wheel on the top of the camera which selects the different modes, but every now and then the camera will switch from say 'video' to 'photo'. Is this the kind of thing which can be fixed or repaired? There don't seem to be any camera repair places anywhere near me, unfortunately - otherwise I'd have taken it in for them to have a look at.

Thanks in advance for any advice or suggestions :)
