Default Where can repair the built in flash?

The one in my d70 has died. NSC informed me that the repair charge is $250 Where else can i have it repaired at a lower cost?

Thanks in advance for your recommendations.

I think $250 already has service charge thrown in liao.
With that said, yes, I would agree and go buy yourself a SB-600 at least!
$250 to get it fixed isn't worth it IMHO

Consider upgrading to a newer camera? Hee.

Send it to NSC for servicing, forget OEM repairs.

Thank u all for the advice

I already have a SB600, but built in flash has the advantage of going light as i dun have to carry another flash for casual shooting mah.

Thanks ESPN, but i feel $250 for the repair is pretty ex. If the "OEM" repair is not much cheaper, i would just have to live with it

Might check out the service at TCW.

Did NSC explain to you why it's $250? Let me know, see what I can do for you.
