Is it safe to buy a digital camera today? Is the problem fixed?

0

While we can’t predict the future, it certainly sounds like this particular problem has been put to bed. Based on what we’ve heard from our industry contacts, the first inklings of the problem surfaced as far back as sometime in early 2004. Whatever its cause (see below for a range of theories), the issue apparently was researched and solved at a manufacturing level by March of 2004. Given the extraordinary impact that it had, it seems safe to say that manufacturers will be particularly vigilant that this particular problem doesn’t recur. Beyond that, we feel that the responsible manner in which the industry is dealing with it bodes well for the future, should anything of similar scope occur again. We don’t think there’s any reason to have any hesitation in purchasing a new digital camera at this time.
