I am out on the road in Colorado, about 3 weeks now and when I was moving my backpack out of my truck it happened. My G12 fell out of my pack and onto the ground. It was in it's padded case but suffered none the less. My camera will not power up any longer. Is there anything I could try to get it working again? If not where should I send it for repair?

Thanks,
Rob

For a wild guess, see if your battery door is damaged. If the door is not closing, then the camera will not turn on, at least that is how it works on my G9 and G11. See if holding it closed helps.
