Digicam LCD screen is borked, need help.

[Llama]

The LCD screen on my camera is cracked, and around the cracks there is what appears to be black ink stuff (It isn't spreading) that means I can't see for a good portion of my camera's screen.

Is there any way to fix this, and if It has to be done by a professoinal, how much will it cost?

Camera is a Fujifilm 'Finepix J10'

;(;(;( help!

TBH i'd buy new. I'm betting if you sent it in, the repair cost would be close to $100 anyway.

Urgh, My parents will go spare and I'm pretty broke right now. Might just live with the problem for a few months. Thanks anyway :thumbs:

when filming in a house, you can plug it into a TV (assuming it has a cord with video or s-video or something)

maybe you have a portable LCD tv/dvd player or something. Plug your camera into the input jacks and you are set.

It doesn't look like your camera has a viewfinder which is too bad.

Another thing. I live in the UK but the camera was bought in the US. I have no idea if it's under warranty - How do I find out, and what do I do since i'm in a totally differeny country? Would I have to send it off over to the US to get it fixed?

it should say in the manual, and if you don't have that there should be a clue on the box, and probably the unit itself.

Maybe look at fuji.com

You would probably have to mail it to a center where it was bought (US). I remember when selling Compusa warranties that was how ours worked. Although they are a retail place and not a camera manufacturer.

Update - Warranty does not cover 'accidental damage' so i'm ****ed xD.

Ahh well, will just have to buy another one / live with it.
