Damn, my camera crapped out on me. UPDATED

Looks like I'll be replacing my Nikon Coolpix L810. Lasted 5 years and took about 75 Gb worth of pix and videos.

Just won't turn on. Replaced batteries-twice and I can get the screen to light but nothing else works. Checked on repair and it will cost about 3/4 of what a replacement will cost.

And I got pictures to take on Sat.

UPDATE. Found a Samsung NX20 at Frys, Only one left, display model, got it for less than half price. Had the box and everything in it.

Good prices, guaranteed quality. They rate their equipment so you know exactly what you're getting.
