We purchased our first D-550z before my mother and I went on a criuse in the Mediterranean. On the second to last day I was taking this picture in Genoa, Italy:
Well, the church's steps were made of black and white marble, one was black then the next one was white, and I had on a borrowed pair of sunglasses. Well, as I rushed to grab that shot and then catch up to my group, I slipped because I couldn't see the steps clearly cause of the glasses and colors. Guess what I landed on? The wide open lens of our brand new camera. -_- The casing cracked so it was completely jammed and it kept trying to go on and off, I had to take out the batteries. On the other hand, it took more damage than I did, all I got was a broken camera, sunglasses, and a slightly twisted ankle. ^_^
Thankfully CompUSA took it back because we had bought the extra warranty plan. Also, the memory card wasn't damamged and we had brought our Olympus film camera with us just in case. It served well to finish out the trip. ^_^
