A small and belated September update for 2024, where I am still, after many years' membership, on 365 Project, also now posting elsewhere but wanting...
Such a heavy and moody sky , yet the sun setting so beautifully ! Well done , so good to have an old faithful in working order again ! ( I am keeping my finfers crossed that my old faithful will last me a few more years!! )
Intermittent fault, Phil, complicated/too difficult to explain here but apparently a problem with the 'internal computer'. Crunch came when I took it out once and it would not work at all. In addition to the sum mentioned it cost me first another £60 to send it to Sony just for diagnosis of the fault! I was reluctant to spend the money on it but as the staff in London Camera Exchange said a camera which does not work when you want it to might as well be a paper weight!! I do love it, so glad to have it back and a new one would have cost far more.
Beryl, mine was a new faithful only just out of guarantee! (£220 to repair!!)
Oh yes! Good observation!
