Hi everyone,
I have just bought the above camera off the bay (mistake) as I am a kayaker and wanted to take photos on the water. Needless to say it doesn't work. I believe the auto-focus is knackered.
Does anyone know if you can get them repaired and if so where to send them to? I really wanted to take it to a trip I'm going on to Scotland soon!

Hmm... I know a great place to get stuff repaired but not sure if it is classed as a competitor or not. :-/

joekirk007 at hotmail dot com. Add me to msn please and let me know. Do you think it will be expensive?

Anyone in the UK know of anywhere? Please! How much do you think it would cost?

its going to be more than it would cost to replace. a basic repair would be around £80, thats about the same price the camera was selling for new before xmas.

its not worth getting low end cameras repaired anymore, camera prices have come down but labour costs stay the same.
