So I've only had this camera a few days, and it's not making a good first impression.
Worked ok for a day - maybe. Now it freezes after only a couple minutes of use. The screen will turn solid grey and the record light will go from blinking to solid. Sometimes a reset will fix it (temporarily), sometimes not.
I installed the latest firmware version which I downloaded from this site. That did not help.
I was using a class 4 SD card which was included with the camera (even though the manual says to use class 6 or above). Not sure if that could be an issue but I have since removed it and replaced it with a class 10 I already had.
Tried to power it up after replacing the card and it would not do so. The white power light would come on, but screen will remain dark and pressing reset does nothing.
At a loss as to what to do next. I bought this off Amazon from Baiklov and selecting the "contact seller" option does not actually let me contact the seller. Nor does selecting "return an item". It doesn't let me select the item to return. May have to follow up more with Amazon on that one to see what is going on.
I think next time I but a cam (if), I'll be sure it's sold and shipped by Amazon so returns won't be a hassle.
