I took out an instant replacement warranty if it goes wrong, I then went to currys who recon theres nothing wrong with it and wont replace it, so what do I do ?? any suggestions on how to make it stop working bearing in mind its not covered for accidents . I have been looking on the web and there fitted with a poor lens, Ive asked a couple of camers shops and there of the same opinion.
If Curry’s have proven your camera to be fine by taking pictures with an identical camera of the same scene at the same time as you & then comparing them on the same monitor, I believe your only option is to sell it on eBay, as the camera would be deemed fit for purpose.

I am certain it is not worth the risk of trying to break it as you will only be able to sell it for spares, they may even charge you for a part not covered by the Warranty terms.

Sorry I can’t help.
