Need camera repair for my NIKON camera that’s gone on the blink.

Anyone know of any repairers in Playa Flamenca or beyond.

Bit thin on the ground Methinks?

Thanks Pete,

Certainly given me food for thought. Hmm? Put a non working Nikon on EBay ?

How does that go down? Might wait till I’m next in Madrid and ask the Q at  NIKON

Repair ctr.Is it a walk in place?

Seems the days of Camera repairers are doomed with the advent of The Mobile Phone and Pads&Pods etc.

Cheers anyway.

John

Although I'd normally go with Pete's point of view, over the years I've seen some very good reports of this place in Elche:

Going to their shop next week in Elche though my Nikon has been discontinued!

But one lives in hope.Cant believe it’s not repairable but we live in the throw away society. I’ll let you know final outcome.Thanks for the heads up!

Thanks Pete for Ebay  View.

After charging battery in camera and switching on, message I am getting in viewer is Lens error! I’m guessing that’s a pretty major error?

Worth pursuing I wonder? It’s a Coolpix 5700 model.

Day out in Elche coming up.

Thanks for that Pete, well I’ve had the camera under wraps for sometime.

Had it repaired for minor fault in UK before I came to Spain, All was well.

Boxed it up but when I went to use it for the 1st time last week, hey presto

This lens error occurred. Not really fussed bout upgrade but might take a

Look round the place in Elche at their collection and have a chat with the

Guys there.As you say though price of repair might not be cost effective.

Shame cos was a nifty little camera but now sadly O O D!

Do you do EBAY Spain? What’s it like?

Thanks again for your advice.Much appreciated.

Cheers John
