Lens error oops
(photoman4 - 9/5/08)My teen's camera was used a lot, carried a lot, dropped some, and generally used by a young teen. It developed a lens error and it was stuck in the extended position. The pictures it took were wonderful (and she does use all the functions as she loves her camera). Canon worked with me in repairing the camera (I was honest with them about it being a teen's camera and all I had was a point of sale as it was a gift), and they repaired it under warranty! I asked before I sent it and they said if it was due to neglect it would be $88 - worth it to her for a great camera - but they fixed it for free. Canon also repaired an earlier camera (out of warranty but a common problem), so I was happy to have another Canon in the house (currently four) after scrapping a Fujifilm FinePix and also several other brands under $100.
