My wife has a Canon Ixus 980 that has developed a fault. The 'Set' button in the centre of the rear scroll wheel doesn't depress / work. This button acts as an 'enter' key and accessing photo shooting options i.e. white balance, image size, colour filters etc. The button just won't depress or anything. The camera takes photos etc so works in auto mode, and in manual mode (based on the last setting when the 'set' button did work).
We took it in for assessment / repair and apparently the whole wheel has to be replaced, at a cost of £98.70!!
Now that we know what's wrong and needs repairing, does anyone know where I can get a replacement wheel for a DIY repair? And the steps to take a 980 apart (saves figuring it out as I go along). Can't justify forking out for a brand new camera if we can help it.
Thanks everyone!!
