EVF NOT FUNCTIONING
      #576618 - 30/11/2007 21:10

Hi,
The EVF on my Dimage A2 no longer functions, I understand that this is a common fault which is being rectified by Sony.
Does anyone know if this is true, and as I was given the camera as a present I do'nt have any receipts or other paperwork for it.Would this be a handicap in getting it fixed.
Appreciate any help.

I shouldn't think the lack of paperwork would be any handicap unless you are hoping for a warranty fix.

I replaced my Hi7 with an A2 and bought another for my daughter immediately on the release of the A2. All three are still going strong. Both A2s have been on numerous expeditions and seriously used with no problems (tempting providence) so on my experience I wouldn't say there is an endemic problem with the EVF.

Apart from the noise in poor light and slow autofocus I've found it a good camera worth getting repaired.

Here is the main repairer for Konica-Minolta and here is the Sony repair form and details as it may still be possible to get it repaired free if it's a known fault.

Good luck!

Hi
I would suggest that you phone the main repairer as per Rogers link. I have had very good service from them with my XD7 and the price i found very reasonable.
Regards
Mibron.
