hi,

im on holiday in Denmark right now and yesterday my DA just died

i was taking some picutures of Copenhangen, and suddenly the LCD
went black, all the info on the screen is still there, such as the
batteri life, shutter speed ... well just like i looks when the
lense cap is still on. (yes, i have checked that

i can see the pictures i have taken, on the LCD and view finder,
but else its just black, even in nightshot mode.

i have tried to reset the camera, and turn it on and off many times
but still the LCD is black, the camera also thinks that it is
taking pictures in the dark as it use the hologram AF emitter, when
i try to take a picture, and all i get is a black picture.

have anyone had the same problem, and do you think its fixable or
shall i start to save money up for a new one ?

i think that my DA have to go to the doctor when i get back to
Paris, but that meens i will miss out on many great pictures here
in DK the next couble of days, what a bummer

I am hearing alot about there 707 breaking. I have one myself and
I thought a camera that cost $1000 would last longer than a couple
years before it needs work.

Same thing happened to my P50. All of sudden, I couldn't take
pictures or movie. I called Sony and they charge more than $150
for labor. All Sony digital cameras come with only 90 days labor
warranty, instead of one year as most of other competitors. We
have to pledge to Sony to change this ridiculous warranty.
