Hi,
I bought this on Amazon, and I've only been able to get it to power on a couple of times, when I first got it I was able to push the power button and it turned on just fine, but then it shut off when it ran out of battery power (like 30 seconds). I plugged it into the wall and I couldn't get it to turn back on. I let it charge till the red light went out and still it would not turn on. I opened it up to see if something was loose, while putting it back together it randomly powered on before I even put the LCD screen and Camera back on. I was able to shut it off with the power button so I could continue putting it back together. But when it was back together, it wouldn't turn on. I did it again, and once again it turned on randomly, I'm not sure I don't think I even pushed the power button. This time I was able to go through the menus and test things and record video and everything worked just fine with it plugged in. It was a bit odd, many settings didn't match the manual and the firmware version was just a string of numbers starting with 2013....so finally I had to turn it off...which I did. And now, I can't get it to turn back on no matter what I do. Any ideas?? Also, here are some pictures of the board inside...
