Tg-2 stopped working

So a week into ownership, my camera stopped working.  It seems to be stuck on A mode, and won't accept any input (other than on/off and taking a picture).  I'm also on vacation at the moment, so this is particularly crappy.  Anyone happen to know if there is a full reset available?  I couldn't find mention of one.

Thanks.

Best thing you can do is to remove the batteries for a few hours and let the camera internal settings reset.

There is a setting in the menus that I recall allows you to reset the camera to original. Found it, first menu, first setting "reset". Do this as a last resort if removing the batteries doesn't work. Good luck!

Re: Tg-2 stopped working

Hi I also am experiencing a very similar problem. My TG-2 is almost a year old (and I love it), I too was on holiday when it stopped working. It switches on, focuses, takes a picture but that's it!  All the controls on the right seem to have stopped working, they are all non responsive! It was not knocked or dropped, the card was nowhere near full, the battery was charged plus I can charge it. I would really appreciate any advice...  Thank you.

I returned mine to that online store named after a South American river and they gave me my money back.
