Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ1 Digital Camera

Some of the buttons don't work (by 3 users)

posted by iepurila on Aug 27, 2007


Hi, i bought my TZ1 camera about an year ago and it worked perfectly fine till now, i took this weekend some pictures during rain.. i tried to protect it from water.. but i think some drops may have gotten inside because now i can turn it on/off but only the left and right arrow are working and the dial, all the other buttons (zoom, take picture button, main menu, erase picture) are not responding when being pressed. When i enter the SCN1 / SCN2 mode using the dial, camera acts like the up arrow is being pressed continuously so the cursor keeps moving up.

Exact same problem here. Any solutions that don't involve dismantling the camera?

Cheers,

Dominic

Hi,
I just had the exact same problem with my TZ1. I sent it to DK Audio Visual Services in UK. They opened it and cleaned the Circuit Board. Now everything works fine. The damage? 75£ or something lie 150$ That is not so bad considering that the new TZ5 is sold at 400$ and more...

Cheers.

You may want to check with a guy in South Carolina that has a lot of used parts, etc for the TZ1. I think his email is gerald.ray@aa-ark.com
