No sooner did I welcome my new Nikon D5100 until my compact camera, a Casio Exilim H-15 decided to throw a tantrum and refuse to co-operate. The strike has taken the shape of a black display making it impossible to in any way determine what you are doing. Taking pictures is still possible, as well as navigating the menu, but without the display using the camera is quite pointless.
This is the second time I have to return this camera for repair. The first time I ended up with soundless movies, resulting in the support changing some chip inside the camera. Now the entire display has given up. It is quite frustrating because, not considering all the technical problems, this is still by far the best compact camera I have ever had. My mother, sister and sister-in-law all have this camera or a later model, without experiencing the problems I have run into. I really hope that this time support will simply give me a new camera!
