    Manufacturers should create manuals also for "blind users", for using the camera without displays..

How broken- more detail if it is cracked - use tape. If it no longer works- checkout a repair at Sumsung customer support the price will be more than half the cost of reeplacing the camera

I have somewhat of the same problem.I got a Sanyo VPC-E760 and one day I woke up and the screen was totally busted!There is like this little black mark that looks like a leaf on the right side,and on the left side there are a bunch of lines!There are about 5 cracks in the middle.It doesn't affect the pictures on the computer but I have not even had it for a month when it occurred.



Anyone have a solution?

SOURCE: my camera screen is broken!!!

It can be fixed, but I would be willing to bet that you would rather put the amount of money toward a new digital camera.  They are extremely inexpensive, especially for Christmas this year.   Splurge and get a second, new camera for yourself, and give the old broken screen one to someone who doesn't have a digital camera.
Good luck, and Merry Christmas!

oh, i know what you felt, however i can give suggestion that might help you with. your cam can be fixed by specialist/ technician for cameras. I suggest that you should go to registered repair shop or to the store where you bought that camera they will fix it for you. Good Luck.

If you pay to have it repaired, then probably could get repaired.

Pentax Optio s50 screen problem

If no error code on the LCD screen, then you have either very weak batteries or a bad CCD problem/malfunction. One way to test the batteries is plug in your AC/DC source and try to turn on your camera again and try taking some pictures. Also make sure you have a memory card present in the camera. If it works, then it was the batteries. If it still doesn't work, then its the CCD. Time for repair.

Can't take photographs when flash is on

Hi
The powershot s5 IS does in fact have some strange behaviour issues especially on the first rev firmware. For example if you take 15-20 flash photos consecutively without powering down your camera the flash recycle times will increase to about 15sec, so you'll have to wait about 15sec before you can take another flash photo. The work around is to power down the camera and then turn it back ON. Another strange behaviour is manifested by its inability to lock focus after taking a "no-flash" photo, then popping up the flash and trying to take a flash photo. Again the work-around is to power down the camera, pop-up the flash and then power it back up. Confirmed these behaviours in two other cameras of the same model.

My camera screen is broken!!!

It sounds very much like it, press the ask me button and send me a message and if you can send me a clear picture of the screen I can tell you.

Usually returning a camera for a new screen is a bit expensive, you may be able to get the part from the manufacture but its often cheaper to get a faulty camera off ebay and swap the screen yourself or find someone who can..

As to weather its worth it it depends on what the camera is....
