Have a Nikon dslr, an 8mp camera phone, and 35mm Casio P & Shoot. The Casio just went in for repair. Originally, this camera was around $300 new (a very good P&S). The repair quote just came in at $139: needs a mother board and new lens--it was stuck. So I authorized the repair. Did I rationalize too much 'bout this? A new cheap camera costs between $59-$99, without all the bells and whistles. One equipped like the 3 year old Casio is between$249-$389. With all the photography I've been doing lately, I will use the casio around 30% of the time. Would you have gone through with the repair or would you have just paid another $100-$150 for a newer model?
