actually, if you bought it from a store like best buy, they can look it up for you by your credit card... they did that for me when i was returning soomething w/o the reciept..

I went through my CC(visa) history and printed it out. it was bought 21 feb. JUST over what is probably thier 90 day policy.

I'll check anyway but I think gaffers tape will hold it together. it doesnt seem to be broken (electronically)
just the plastic that houses the lens.

I'll really give it a good look and decide if its air worthy if they wont take it back

How about Homeowners/Renters insurance?

Now what did you go and do that for?! You should be more careful with your toys. I think you're in need of a spanking!

Hope you get it fixed.

don't Sony have the same costumer service as L&B ??
Send it to them, and they send you a new one with a spare battery, 5 90 minutes tapes and a firewire cable

I agree, this MUST suck. Sooo sorry for you man. And this happened during "traditionnal" use, not even during a skydive...

if you're talking about the dakota digital, it's junk and it's a gimmick. it defeats the purpose of digital photography completely and the picture quality is crap.

or you could be talking about the gimmick of getting digital prints or a cd from regular disposable film cameras. Those cameras that you take the 27 photos and turn back in to get a CD of your photos are no different from other disposable film cameras. but most people don't understand photography anyway... nowadays, 1-hr stores don't make photographic prints anyway. Once the film is developed, the machines scan the negatives to make prints or burn a CD.

either way, it's crap. If you want photos on your computer or to email to friends, buy a real digital camera. It will quickly pay for itself in savings of film and developing.

sorry to hijack
peace

Man, that's a very easy field repair...mine broke like that too and I replaced it...it's just one part that you need to order...but you need to know the part number, see if you can get a hold of a service manual and the part number is there, order it and play with it, it's like a plug and play kind of thing, with some assembly required.

Warranty? I bought the 4 year warranty from Besty Buy for my TRV-33, they said I could pretty much do what you did and get a new one.

after all the things I could have tried to get my camera fixed/replaced. I resorted to the best thing possible.

My Girlfriend offered to go "give it a try."
(she's as beautiful as she is cool) she had absolutely no problem getting a NEW TRV-22 in exchange for the old one

THAT WAS VERY COOL!
