hi - this is probably a question for Wibble but anyone can join in.............
we have panasonic lumix dmc fz 200 bridge camera which has packed up.
It started with the shutter intermittently not clicking - so no photo
shorty after it will not click at all
Now we have progressed to 3 buttons on the top which are not working
1, shutter 2. burst 3. fn1
everything else works but of course we cannot take pictures - it has not been dropped.
Any ideas please _ am hoping someone can tell me:-
- is it defunct?
- is it repairable? - if its repairable will it be an economic proposition to do it?
- or..could we do it ourselves?
-anyone know a camera shop within reasonable distance of Plemet - I have asked this on AI but no replies - the last one i knew of was in broons and shut down about 5 years ago

or the other option is do a factory re set which you should find somewhere in the menu.

boo hooooo.......went to loudeac. Chap said he couldn't fix it himself - could send it off to panasonic but it would probably cost in excess of €200 so he though we would be better buying a new one.
Anyone out there got a Nikon coolpix bridge p530 that they can review for me
