hi drumma,

wad should i do with the shutter prob? die2 i have to send it over to Canon... no no no... so far from my hse, cost me a bomb later on, and will take quite some time.. sigh...

now my camera is in a disassembled state. tink i will continue fiddling with it tmw. feel so sleepy.

 

[drumma]

if i were you, i will buy a new cam.. though this idea kinda of sucks if u are on a tight budget but no choice if you need a cam urgently.

sending it to canon, i don't know if checking of problems is free or not. but i don't think it will be free.

rather spend the money on a new cam.. if not, see what cams are available in BnS. see if u like them?

i'm not too sure if it's a shutter problem but it sounds like a shutter problem to me. care to elaborate more?

is it still under warranty? if i were you i'd sent it for repair, or at least ask what kind of damage the camera had incurred.

i kind of feel your pain. my flash got busted one time and i had to travel to the far end of aljunied to some ulu factory to get it repaired..walked all the way there and had to wait for 30 mins!

yah, its not free. once u send it to Canon, its at least $80 for their svc. not incl parts. sigh.

isnt much that i could elaborate. all i could say is, once the barrel extends fully n have a 'click' sound, the shutter refuse to open. it remains shut. any help?

and yah, on a tight, mebbe no budget at all. haha. juz a student doin his attachment now.
