Be glad you have nothing on it to report to the authorities, who might then confiscate the camera as evidence! [😉] ]'>

For the record, mine came with photos on it, and it was from a school. But the camera hadn't ever been used at the school, only stored. So god knows what was on there. It erased though anyway, before I had the chance to connect it up.

Posted by: joshc on 2007-05-06 12:01:49 I have a broken QuickTake 200 - the fuse blew out on it. I probably won't ever get around to getting a fuse and replacing it...Oh well.

...or could you just stick something metal in where it's supposed to go? (assuming that it's easily accessible) And I thought I didn't know anything about hardware. :b&w:

Posted by: The Macster on 2007-05-06 12:52:33 What do you mean? I thought that was a well-known trick for if you don't have a fuse to hand! 😛

Better yet, you could turn a Quicktake into a carrot.

Better yet, you could turn a Quicktake into a carrot. What?! Is that pure randomness or is there some sort of inside joke that I'm missing here? 😛
Anyway, it would be a waste to turn it into something other than a camera, given that there's very little wrong with it from the sound of it - if you don't want to fix it, give it to one of us! 🙂

If your Quicktake 200 is broken, it would make a great aquarium! How? You can't see into it.

Posted by: The Macster on 2007-05-07 06:33:41 If there's something wrong with the device that caused the fuse to go, then I guess replacing the fuse with metal will cause damage, as the fuse is there to stop it being damaged if there is a fault like that. Sometimes fuses seem to go for no reason though, in which case this trick is useful if you don't have a spare fuse. I think silver foil works, which is easier than trying to fit a wire in!
