Olympus MJU 700 - not taking pictures unless flashed turned off!
I've had a MJU 700 for 3 weeks and the camera won't take pictures
unless the flash is turned off! As soon as I switch the flash to auto, red-eye or on it basically focusses in but doesn't take the shot! I get a red flashing flash icon in the top right below the battery icon. This icon apparently means "Camera movement / flash charge". In the advanced manual it says that the flashing is "the flash charging" and you should "wait until the flash charge mark stops blinking before taking the picture". But it never stops blinking! Anyone got any ideas before I have to take off work in the morning to drop it off to get it repaired? Thanks Jeremy |

snip
If that does not work it is likley a loose or broken connection inside the camera (loose or disconnected flash capacitor lead) and will probably require a relatively easy fix. Randy Relatively easy fixes can be obtained at Jessops at a cost of around £135. |
