I have had bunches of calls lately from people with broken cameras. Most have been dropped or exposed to sand or water, and some have just quit working. My customers are wondering what to do to get them repaired. So here are a few answers that might help out. For those of you with a digital camera that has bit the dust, or more likely hit the floor, you really only have one option and that is to send your camera back to the manufacturer for repair. Today’s digital cameras are so complicated and small that they can’t be fixed at your corner camera repair shop. Not many camera repair shops even exist anymore. So your best bet is to go to your camera brand Web site, look for service or support and see what they offer in the way of repairs. Each manufacturer is different, so your results may vary. The big brands will give you an estimate before you send it in.

First thing to do is protect yourself from the weather.
The new normal beginning again
You’re walking through Wal-Mart and you reach for the tomatoes. The bright red ones look great, so you pick out five or six and place them in a bag. Then, all of the sudden, tears begin to flow.
