I don't know how I'm going to survive without it for 3 weeks, which i'm sure will end up taking longer. Luckily I got the protection plan, so it's free to be fixed and a fairly simple process. What happened? Well, I'm not quite sure. I don't know if it was just a lemon or what. But sometimes when I turn it on the lens freaks out and vibrates and won't work. And all my pictures, no matter what setting I use, are all extremely grainy. I'm going on a mini vacation and I'll be lost without my camera, but I figure that if I tried to take my camera with me I'd just end up getting upset because my camera wouldn't work properly and my pictures would turn out horrible anyways. Well, I hope they can find the problem. If not, I don't know what I'm going to do!
