    I broke my digital camera on saturday night. It won't turn on and I can see that the lense is damaged. I went into a camera shop in the square today and the guy said that he would have to send it to the nikon factory which is abroad and it costs 100 euro for an estimation but this goes towards repairs. But he estimated it would cost at least 100 euro. He also said for a new camera of the same spec it would be looking at the canon ixus for 199.He did say I may be able to find someone more local who could fix it but they only deal with the manufacturer and they are abroad. So should I spend 100 euro or try and find someone else to do it cheaper or just suck it up and buy a new camera? the brand of my current camera isnikon coolpix s52.

    He fixed my D40 for me I collected it yesterday and it was in mind condition.
    He's also extremely affordable and he has fast turn around times :-)
