Call them to confirm first, before buying online.

Those purchased online will not have warranty coverage. It might not be able to have the sensor exchange. Take note.

It is stated in manual that you will need to set Frame Number to renew.

Try format in the camera.

Fuji service centre is maybe the service centre with the least manpower. If you really know their operation and any of the staffs there, you will even pity them. I know that their technical staff (Mr Tan) hospitalised recently, and the whole thing jammed. I believe he is still clearing the...

Called Mr Tan from FSC to check about my computer problem. Someone else pick up the phone and tell me Mr Tan is hosptialised! They are very busy now, no time to answer call, and the service time will be even longer. (warning do not go for repair now) Tan helped me and my friends a lot. And...

Ya, I am glad that Mr Tan is in Fuji. He is very helpful and merciful as compared to others although he look very stressed especially with the white hairs :sweat:. And like what you mentioned, he seems rather lonely there. Often saw him walk all the way to Little Road (my office there) under the...

IMHO, it is unfair to judge them without them looking at the camera first. There might really be some misunderstanding such as the 3 parts or 5 parts. A more practical way is to cool down and go to Fuji directly for the repair job. Highlight to the counter which parts your want to replace...

I think there are 5 rubber piece in S5 (2 x front, 1 x back, 1 x bottom, 1 x entire side panel). Hey, they can still spots the differences between Fuji and Nikon just by power on, or dismantle. Don't try the stunt. :bsmilie:

You want to change which rubber grip? Does it include the side panel (USB etc)? Have both Fuji and Nikkon checked your S5 physically already, or only rough estimations over the phone (which may have some misunderstanding)? By the way, I think they are still charging $80 - $100 for the...

The connector is not glued on, it is solder on. I opened up mine upon seeing this thread (itchy hand?). Very difficult to do the soldering on the overcrowded area with many other tiny components, and the pins are all surface mounted. (Maybe I not skillful in working with SMT components to give...

Call Fuji at 63805540 to check, or just walk in to purchase. Careful, one of the girl a bit attitude :sticktong.

Lens unit will never be replaced cheap regardless of brands. Once lens broken or camera contact water, it is time to let go, and look for a new camera. Threadstarter, go try the F100. The only thing I don't like about it is the button layout.:sweatsm:

From what I know and experienced, there are only one or two camera service centre in SG which uses the dismantle and cleaning method. More expensive, longer time (few days), but more care, clean, and lots of efforts. As for other service centres, they usually only use spray or swab from outside...

Are you often printing the photo in 100% or more, or almost 100% size? If not, just live with it. You can actually always found these kinds of "defective" in digital cameras under conditions such as dark frame, slow speed etc. :think: Up to you to decide. Remapping, if can be done, may makes...
