Thanks for your review, but it reads like a review by someone who bought the camera with no idea of its strengths and weaknesses and most appropriate uses, bought it anyways, and used it mainly for the things it was not meant to do. I'm surprised you didn't complain about the lack of video. In short, you should not have bought this camera, because it was never going to be the camera for you. You chose poorly. You don't buy a camera that has no image stabilisation, no fast lens, and poor high-ISO capability, then complain about your results "at badly lit environments like indoors and at night". A tripod might change that, but you already complained that it is too big and bulky, like you really want a pocket camera. Why on earth didn't you buy an RX100?

In particular, buying a camera that has no raw support for your computer, then blaming the camera, is unbelievable. That's like buying a car that can't be registered in your country.

Regarding the warranty issue, you just have to 'man up' and send it in. Make a short video demonstrating the issue occurring, and send it in with the camera for repair. Remind them that an intermittent fault is still a fault and must be fixed.
