Title: Tragic design flaw
Product review: Just wanted to add another confirmation that this camera is mechanically flawed. The design of the control dial/shutter button assembly is horrendous (which you'll get to see for yourself once it breaks off if you buy this camera). Basically, when you turn the dial, you're exerting lots of pressure against 4 tiny plastic pins that hold the dial assembly together. In my case, the dial broke off just after the warranty expired. Having called around, it sounds like it'd be a minimum of $150 to fix it, including shipping. And even if it were fixed, I think its safe to assume it would break again in a year or so.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
