I'm looking to replace my damaged Sony compact (quoted price to fix: 640MYR  ) The camera will be used during travelling and for normal daily shots. Currently looking at the NEX-F3, but is the predecessor, NEX-C3 a better camera in general (based on reviews I skimmed through) ? The price of F3 is lower than C3 at YL Camera though. Or should I straight aim for the NEX-5N.

How crucial/important is extended warranty for cameras ? Is it worth it to get the 2 years extended warranty from Sony, for 180MYR ?

QUOTE(nlik @ Jul 2 2012, 11:58 PM) Your unit still under warranty, send it to Sony, but takes days if not 2 weeks. I'm doing fine so far with just a blower. Does this mean Sony Service Centres provide free cleaning services for units under warranty ?

QUOTE(clearcase @ Jun 24 2012, 01:16 PM) if you're not in hurry can get it via ebay for ~RM5 like thisThanks for the link ! Just received mine in the mail today. Really surprised that the quality is so good, for something less than 5MYR total.. This post has been edited by kioku: Jul 9 2012, 09:14 PM

QUOTE(imns238 @ Jul 10 2012, 12:06 PM) Dummy question, new to camera, just got my nex 5n couple of week and notice some dust on the sensor (noticeable when shoot with F22 on white background) shall i send to sony or its there any method that i can clean it my self? and if send to sony for cleaning, isit cover under warranty or they charge for it? Other than DIY, can send to Sony SC e.g. The Curve. For units under warranty, they provide free body, sensor, lens cleaning.

QUOTE(Ah hao @ Jul 29 2012, 06:12 PM) just went to Sony Centre, asking about cleaning service if the camera under warranty and the staff told me will be charge around RM60-80... is this price normal? if vs cleaning charge camera shop outside? According to Sony Service Centre at The Curve, cleaning service is free for units under warranty. Includes body, lens or sensor. Only difference is the duration it will take.

QUOTE(Ah hao @ Jul 29 2012, 11:45 PM) just now i ask the promoter about this and she pretty sure it charge, just not sure by how much... anyway thanks for ur info, will try and ask another outlet do u know how much if done that outside? Was at the service centre in The Curve to fix another camera, and when I asked one of the senior attendant, she said that it will be FOC as long as the camera is still under warranty. Maybe you could ask directly at The Curve, since you would need to send it there as well for the cleaning service. Opens daily from 10am till 10pm, thus, very convenient.. There's another service centre in KLCC as well.

QUOTE(Ah hao @ Jul 30 2012, 05:09 PM) I am from jb  Ouch  They might be charging you the transportation fee to the service centre. IMHO, I would definitely send to a reliable place to clean, as your sensor and lens is real dirty..
