so my bag AH,HA,AHEM. got tripped on or sometghing. the result being a jammed lens , cracked and bent filter ring. and one of the buttons went on a fantastic journey toward the center of the camera keeping me out of all the usefull menus and such.
(force un jammed the lens)
(pliers fixed the ring)
(stripping half the camera and bending back a flimsy pin on the back of the button)

also i think the dead pixels are in season :-)

i like the camera but at its price i dont think its breakableness is acceptable so as iv destroyed any warrentee i might have had (probably didnt) , iv decided not to advertise this camera for free, and have coverd logos and such, iv also replaced the bulky gaudy strap that twists and tangles with a superior strap ironically made by cheaper rival 10 or more years ago.
i did consider filling the logo in but decided it might get messy , maybe another day.
