Saturday, we went to the store to pick up our "repaired"camera, quickly tested it out and plainly saw that the problem was not fixed, which leads me to wonder if a human being even looked at my camera. One simple picture taken was all it took for me and the Geek Squad guy to see it was not in focus. The note from the repair place said,"No visible damage." OK, so they "looked" at it, but probably did nothing else! The camera is on its way back to wherever that is, probably another country, as it takes 3 weeks round trip! This is the third strike on this camera. Next time it is replaced. I am not sure I want a third camera of this make and model. (Yes, this camera is a replacement for my first one that was unable to charge after six months.) I've never had such problems with a camera before. So, my baby's 10th birthday, which is this week will go unrecorded! I guess at least we have a cell phone camera, but it is not the same. Buyer be ware!
Oh Jenn I am so sorry that really stinks.
ReplyDeleteWhat sort of camera was it (I'm probably going to be in the market for a new one soon,and I'd like to avoid whatever brand you've had so much trouble with.) :-(
Happy Birthday to your 'baby' this week! (Maybe you could get a disposable film camera for the occasion?)
God Bless,
Michelle
Jenn, what a headache! I'm sorry that your camera is still not working. I hope the replacement camera works like a gem.
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, I don't think I would be as calm as you are about the whole thing. So sorry it's not working. Wish you were here so I could loan you a camera. Hope you get some great pics with your phone camera.
ReplyDeleteThis whole ordeal is so sad. And I suppose they will just replace with the exact same brand/model. I'd demand my money back or in-store credit to find something else -- what a lemon. Too bad you won't have a good camera for Trevor's birthday. That reminds me of the year I put black & white film in our camera for the fun of it (talking a while back) and then Christmas came & I still hadn't used up the film...all of that years' Christmas photos were in black & white. lol.
ReplyDeleteWow it was even a Nikon! I am soooooooo sorry. I hope third time is a charm. ((HUGS))!
ReplyDeleteI am hoping to get a replacement for my camera at the end of November. (depending on my craft fair sales)
Blessings and ((HUGS))

Jenn,
ReplyDeleteI think I would have ditched the camera long ago. I admire your patience. :)

Sorry to hear that - what a bummer!!! Maybe Santa needs to pop a new camera altogether under the tree this year. :)
