Camera RIP



This is the last image I'll be able to post until I can sort out another camera (Makes a nice desktop picture).  Unfortunately I dropped the camera and now the shutter won't close or the lens retract...I've got a feeling it's dead.

Hi Robin,

bad news! I've managed to do the same before now. Alison did it to her Canon a few weeks ago and I managed to fix it after googling and discovering many people with similar problems. I don't want to raise false hopes, it turns out, for the canon at least, that when dropped there is a sensor that confused or misaligned. Even if its not a canon it might be worth checking similar things. check the lens mount is still central to the body, and whether the lens is actually fully extended or just jammed half in/half out. Probably best to google for your particular make of camera,

cheers

Mark
