Anyone on the list have any experience with the little Ricoh R1 P&S? I have
one that has been on the shelf for awhile, and when I pulled it out
yesterday, I noticed that the LCD frame counter is intermittent... the
seven-segment counter display is missing multiple segments, and by pressing
on the body at various locations around the display I can make the problem
better or worse. I'm guessing that there are some sort of "bump contacts"
between the electronics and the LCD that have become corroded or something
over time - any one have more definite information or guess? How about
repairability? This is a pretty nice little pocket camera, and everything
works fine except the display, so I'm not tempted to try deep surgery! I
can probably live with a little sticky note to manually keep tract of
exposures remaining, if it comes to that...
As always, any insights are appreciated!
