Hi fellows,
I have powershot s45 that I dropped on the floor. It still works,makes the same quality pictures but the LCD display is very dark. First of all i thought the LCD is broken but when I look carefully I can see it works but it very very dark. It is like if you adjust the brightness of a TV to almost 95 %.
Does anybody have an idea what might may me be the problem?
In my country -Bulgaria I fave to pay more then 100 $ to authorised canon servise to rapair, which I think is not worth it since I can purchase second hand camera on ebay for even less money.

For $100. you can trade in your camera to canon for an A510.

The bulb might be out. Lcds need a light behind the LCD to illuminate the display. You could of nocked the LCD back light out or its out of position. Its hard to tell by just your description.
