i am a proud owner of a canon s500...recently on a trip to vegas..i cracked the lcd screen.
thing is, i never dropped it or bashed hard it anywhere..it was in my jacket pocket the entire time. the crack is on the right side of the lcd..and it looks as if it was caused by a bend/dent in the outer shell.
the camera is still under the manufacturer's 1yr warranty..and im wondering if the repairs are covered by it?
