Today is a great day :) .

No, no, I did not sign for a new job yet ;) .

But my camera (Canon SD400) is finally fixed and working like before with a sparkling new LCD screen.

The screen had been broken since the day I left Turkey for France rendering the whole camera useless as most of the functions are only accessible through the LCD screen.

While in France, I had found that it was possible to order the LCD screen directly to the Canon New Jersey parts center. So one week after my return here, I ordered the screen. It went very smoothly and cost $65.

I received the screen yesterday afternoon and armed with a lot of tools, I got on with the task of trying to make the substitution. It took me some time to decide which screws to remove. And I ended up stuck with a screw that did not want to bulge. But finally, thanks to the fine step by step instructions I found on the web, a piece of paper and some tape, I managed to make the change without removing the damn screw!

Tada!

It is now working like before as you can see from the pictures in this entry 8-).

Hurray!
