camera was dropped with lense out

Clarification Request

Posted by nikonian2 on Aug 19, 2008

First : does the camera still take pictures? of if not doe is react on zoom commands or shut down commands ?

if not is the lens hood (plastic or metal ) bent or broken? if yes , the costs of getting it repaired are mostley way too high unless you have emaotional band with it , i suggest taht if there are bents or broken parts in the camera buy a new one and use a wrist strap, digital cameras are not ment to fall or can survive a crash

Same Problem

-   Hi,

I accidentally dropped my DSC N1 onto a pavement while clicking and the lens out. Now everything works and the lens movement is ok but the screen is blank. Stored pictures though are perfect.

Pls advice.

These cameras are much too fragile to survive a drop, using the wrist strap is an absolute necessity.

Hi am really sorry to have to agree that it will probably cost you more to repair the camera than to replace it. I would look for good sales, of which there are many this time of year and find a replacement, and yes they do all come with a wriststrap. Also, you will want ot have little padded case to keep it in, preferably one with a strap that goes around your neck. I actually replace the wrist strap with a strap long enough to go around my neck, put both case strap and the camera strap around my neck and can take the camera in or out as I need it. Also you can purchase a small digital tripod for about $20.00 that you can leave small and put the camera on it and brace it against your chest. It works great to get a good photo on short notice. Just some photogs tricks. Good luck to you.
