I think my first one was around $600.

We never had problems with the mode dials...it was always the freaking battery compartment covers.

Worst digicam I ever bought was a Fuji that wrote to CDs.

Ugh.

Never again.

The C2500L used almost the same battery door. The lug that depressed the door warning switch would break, or the door would warp and the camera wouldn't work. I made new lugs for a couple of them.

I still have a C2500L but it crashes periodically. It was one of the first DSLRs, and an aggravating little machine, LOL. It will take good pics only on certain phases of the moon!
