Digital Camera playing up
Summer__x
04-12-2008
My camera one day just stopped turning on. It charges up, it turns on when the charger is plugged it however soon as you remove the charger it goes off.

I couldn't be bothered messing about so in the end I took the battery out of it and just left in the cupboard.

Yesterday I thought I'll go and see if I can get it fixed anywhere cause I miss it. I got sidetracked and I came home without being to the shop.

When I got home I took it out my bag and I pressed the button and it turned on? I was like WTF? Now today it won't work.

What could I do? I can't afford to buy a new camera. I bought this camera about 2 years ago so I have no warranty or guarantee.

Anybody had a problem like this? how did you fix it?

Any repair may cost more than its worth.
Nikon advised me to post my antique Coolpix off to them for repair when I asked for advice on their website.
There are some really good tutorial videos on camera repair on http://camerarepair.blogspot.com/ so I'll have a go at DIY repair.
In the meantime I'll have at look at Lidl's offering for £34.99: Nytech (who?) 7 MP, 3X optical, 4X digital zoom, 16 MB internal memory, 2.5" lcd, includes cables, batteries, charger & CD. Looks like SD/MMC card extra.
