Title: Repair Service Advisory
Applies To: Olympus C-5050ZOOM and C-730UltraZOOM
Description:
It has recently come to our attention that a limited number of C-5050 Zoom
and C-
730UZ cameras may exhibit the following symptoms:
In picture taking mode, the camera will produce pictures
that are of a gray or purple tone or the pictures will be
completely black. If the LCD monitor (or the C-730UZ
electronic viewfinder) is used to compose the picture, the
preview display will also be dark.
NOTE: This problem may be accelerated if the product is frequently exposed
to
hot and humid environments.
For further details please feel free to contact our European Customer
Support Centre
by using above mentioned contact information or get in contact with your
local
Olympus Repair Centre
QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Q: My camera is not experiencing this problem now but I'd like to have it
serviced now. Would this be OK?
A: We anticipate that there will be an increase in the volume of repairs for
the first few months after this
advisory is announced. If your camera is functioning properly now, we
recommend that you hold off on
sending the camera in until after January 2006. At that time, we will repair
the defect even if your
product is not exhibiting a problem.
Q: I previously experienced problems with my camera like described and had
to pay to have my camera
repaired. This doesn't seem fair. Can you do anything for me?
A: Please contact a local Olympus Repair Centre to discuss your situation.
Q: How will I know if my camera will experience this defect?
A: Please get your model and serial number information and contact your
local Olympus Repair Centre.
We will check to see if your camera falls within the range of products
affected.
Q: My camera is not within the serial number range of this defect. Can I get
my camera serviced anyway?
A: If your camera is not experiencing a problem and is not within the range
of defect serial numbers, there
is no need for repair service.
We sincerely apologize if you experience this problem. In response, Olympus
Imaging Europa GmbH
will cover all costs involved in repair service in order to bring the
product back to full working specifications.
