Olympus D-600L Zoom Switch
I handed my camera to a friend to take a picture. When he handed it
back to me, the zoom switch was not working. It seems to be moving freely, not engaging whatever mechanism it is that causes the zoom to move. I doubt that he did anything to break it. The zoom switch, as I recall, can't be forced past its stops with normal force applied. I'd like to be able to TRY to repair the switch myself. I only paid $50 for the camera, used. It has worked well for an older camera, despite the deficiencies in shooting in low light, and the relatively large size and lack of features compared to more "modern" digital cameras. Would anyone here care to comment on how difficult it is to reach the internal parts of the switch mechanism? I'm quite willing to tackle disassembly, assuming I can find all the places to unscrew the case. Thanks in advance if you can help. |
