I was taking pictures today and my camera dropped (not far). Now it no longer works. The lens won't go in and it makes a beeping sound when it turns on and it says "E18" on the screen. I called the canon help line and it sounds like it's something that the camera is going to have to be taken apart to be fixed, which means I have to mail it to them.......which means I will be several weeks without a camera. *cries* It's under warranty until June, but if they find impact damage it won't be under warranty any more...and I don't know how much it will cost to fix. I called around a few places and they estimated at least $80 and that's still taking several weeks. :( :(
I'm not sure what to do. I was going to go on a short trip to Las Vegas in 2 weeks and I don't want to be without a camera. I have my old camera (Kodak) but it's not very good. I was thinking of buying another camera with a better zoom anyway, but I wasn't expecting to have to do it right now. Does anyone have some camera suggestions? I'd prefer to stick with Canon as I have liked the camera so far. It's a Powershot A95 so something considerably better than that. I also need something that uses the same type of memory card I already have (compact flash). Kay/Audrey/Anna what kind of cameras do you guys have again?
