I borrowed my friends camera once. I think it was a film camera, but it looked similar to my canon rebel. (exchangable lenses, etc) Anyway, I put it in its case, but it wasn't closed. So of course, the camera fell out. It wouldn't work. The len s wouldn't turn to focus or whatever. I was too busy freaking out, but my dad did some fiddling around and got it to work. It's not really the same thing, I guess...but I hope you can get it working.

(also, if my cellphone broke everytime I dropped it, I would be in a lot of trouble. I'm glad I'm not the same with my cameras.... I'm afraid of myself sometimes.)
