		| while i was in the field a fellow marine got a hold of my camera and noticed there was dust on the screen that holds the autofocus dots, he tried cleaning it with a t-shirt and scratched it, now it does not focus, my question is: do the scratches on the screen affect the focusing capabilities of my rebel? if so can it be replace, how much? |

		I'm confused on how this has happened but if the screen is scratched and the autofocus does not work it sounds like an expensive repair job to me.

		So did you get a formal reprimand after you kicked him in the gonads?
