My E-P5 dials are now beginning to malfunction. Most of the time they work, but they also skip a click or two from time to time.

Can anyone recommend a quick fix so i can bring the camera on my vacation next week?

Does anyone know at what point the global guarantee expires. I found this on their website: "Please kindly be informed that Worldwide warranty will not be provided with most of our Micro Four Thirds System and compact digital camera products shipped after September of 2014." Does anyone know whether that means shipped after September 1 or shipped after September 30?

I purchased mine on September 9, 2015 from Korea shipped to the USA, where I picked it up when over there. I am hoping to have it repaired here in Europe.

Just look at your warranty slip. It should tell you whether your particular body has a worldwide or a geographically restricted warranty. Which kind of warranty you got should depend on what slip was in the box rather than on the date of purchase.

Anyone have any experience with this? Thanks in advance for any info/advice.
