Question about Fuji FinePix S3000 Digital Camera

Memory Door My Fuji S3000 has gone through two memory doors since I purchased it about two years ago--the original one that was on the camera, and the second one from a second camera that I had to purchase for parts. I download photos quite often, and use a reader to do so. The little piece on the door that snaps it shut is what breaks off, no matter how gentle I am with it. I merely need to purchase the door, as I have someone that can replace it for me. Does anyone know where I can find them? Please don't suggest Fuji, because that is just one big joke! I have also tried eBay, but to no avail... I am a newspaper writer/photographer, and cannot be without my camera... Thanks in advance for any help you can provide me with!

The memory door clip has broken on my Fuji camera, just as described on the site. I have not yet tried any of the fixes proposed.

I have the same problem with my 3800. I am thinking of bonding a tiny (about 1/4 round) neodymium rare earth magnet and a tiny bid of medal to the camera body (under the door). However, I am not sure if the magnet will effect the memory card.

You are correct Camera spares are a joke - there are none Do what you did before. or use gaffer tape if the latch does not operate a 'Door open Switch' If it does then ram a matching in to kid it is shut then gaffer tape it.

I have a Fuji FinePix A340 digital camera (c. 6 years old). Camera stores say that they do not have memory cards small enough. My manual says the largest-memory card my camera can accommodate is DPC-512...

You can buy small memory cards at amazon.com Also, there is a firmware update for your camera available at the support section of the Fuji website.

Fuji fine pix s3000. Been sitting on shelf a while. Now new batteries and will not power up. Batteries are new and in the correct way. Any thoughts?

Try cleaning the contact points in the battery compartment and on the battery door.

One side of the door on my Fuji s300 where the card goes in has broken off. The other side is still intact. Right now I keep the door closed with a piece of duck tape. Can the door be replaced and where...

Didn't fix the problem. Part not available so duck tape will have to do until I'm forced into another camera. I like this camea but both Fuji's I purchesed had the same problem with a door. The other was the battery door where the tabs that kept the door closed chipped off so the door would not stay closed.
I will not purchse another Fuji.

This is an easy possibility, Try using an eraser on all the contacts for the batteries. The ones on the battery door and the ones inside the camera. Try to get them shiny, the harder white erasers work best. If that doesn't solve to power problem, the camera may have blown its power fuse internally. That repair would likely cost 50-60$
