I have a sony cybershot dsc830. Had it just over a year and all been fine. Today for no reason at all - the camera just went black. it works but I can see nothing. To test it - I took a picture ( not know what I was taking as all black). When I put the memory card in the computer the pictures come out perfectly - it is just the camera is black - what can I do? I bought it from Argos - just over a year ago - so i guess it is out of any warranty that Sony might give?</P> Tue, 18 Oct 2016 13:21:38 GMT https://community.sony.lt/t5/cyber-shot-compact-cameras/camera-gone-black/m-p/2242346#M3264 sarahq1962 2016-10-18T13:21:38Z https://community.sony.lt/t5/cyber-shot-compact-cameras/camera-gone-black/m-p/2242351#M3265 <P>Hi Sarah,</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>Sounds like display illumination is broken - guess you need to send your cam for repair.</P><P><BR />Cheers</P><P>PD</P> Tue, 18 Oct 2016 13:28:44 GMT https://community.sony.lt/t5/cyber-shot-compact-cameras/camera-gone-black/m-p/2242351#M3265 Pumpkin_Duke 2016-10-18T13:28:44Z https://community.sony.lt/t5/cyber-shot-compact-cameras/camera-gone-black/m-p/2242359#M3266 <P>yes, guess you are right probably. Had it just over a year. cost me about £70 - do you have any idea is it worth having it repaired? or buy a new one? Where to go to get it repaired?
