Hey all I have Rikki's sony cybershot and a few weeks ago I dropped it. Ever since It reads an error code and the focus function no longer works.

I cracked it open to see if I could find a loose wire or something but no luck. Although I did something that managed to fix it for a day. The problem came right back the next day.

Ok I have tried sony's website and have searched the internet tirelessly for days trying to get some insight on this. I am out of ideas. I can't even find a local electronics repair to take it to.



I am open to suggestions.

 

Buy him a new one??

 

Seriously, tho. All of those cameras have an electronic focus mechanism. It's simply a logic circut that locks the focus onto whatever it can tell is the closest focusable object. Probably your only option is to send it to Sony.

 

Yea that is what I was thinking. I went to Ritz camera today and they said it would be a $75 estimate that would go to the cost of repairs if any are done.

 

we use http://www.precisioncamera.com/ to repair broken camera's under extended warranty. might want to check them out

 

Thanks man, I'm on it.

 

daddy i broke it

 

Rikki's gonna be pissed is what I'm thinking.



LOL @ Ryan

 

I told him when I did it.

I did it at the track and he knows I'll take care of whatever damage I did.

Even if that means replacing the camera.

 

The "S" and the "D" are to close to each other, aren't they Dave.LOL
