Please help.
Ihave dropped my camera with the zoom out and it got twisted. Have
taken it apart to find two of the little metal pins fitting onto the
inside of the zoom casing had been knocked out. I have super glue
these back into position. But I am stuck on the correct proceedure for
putting the lens assebly back together. Can any one help with a manual
for the zoom lens. Or any suggested sites were I may get help.
112709624.
lens plastic case has 38 39 written in white paint on te side.
P10 in the injection moulding.
Olympus lens AF zoom 6.5 - 19.5 1:2.8

I love this camera so big time upset.

Many thanks Tim....

No idea how to fix it... but if worst comes to worst, you might be
able to find one on eBay to replace it. Or check Yahoogroups... I
think there is a specific group for this camera. And someone there
might be able to help.

I have one and love it... but am thinking to move up to a C5050, so
it's possible mine will end up on eBay later on.

I understand the upset! I'd be very unhappy if anything happened to
mine! Took Thanksgiving pictures... with flash, color was great!

I'd be really careful with the gasses given off by Superglue

True, but it would be a bit late now. The gasses really only
come off while it is setting.
