This camera lasted less than 10 months.  The motherboard went.  Sony wanted to charge $125 just to look at it.  To fix it would have cost more that it would cost for a new camera.  I contacted Sony's corporate office and did receive a call from soneone who had no authority to do anything but breathe.  I offered to split the cost with Sony.  The woman said she would get back to me and I am still waiting 2 years later.  It's bad enough that the camera broke in less than a year.  I understand these things happern but the real insult was Sony's attitude.  They have absolutely no concept...
