[QUOTE="KJProX, post: 673868, member: 44438"] Since my last post here about getting this camera in December I have bought several more lenses and thoroughly enjoyed the camera. Now the sad part. A month ago I took it out in the wild so to speak for the first time, went to a large car show event. After walking around all day with it on a Rapid type strap and getting home, took it out of the camera bag to download the pictures. To my shock the Multi Selector button on the back was snapped off and gone. Apparently when I was walking out to leave with it bouncing around near my hip the edge of the button caught on something on my pants and broke off. Now I can't use any of the menu functions or review back and forth through pics I shot. I can use a small pointed object to access the tiny switch buttons that are now exposed, but that is not convenient at all. Short of replacing the back with a used one off ebay or replacing the camera I don't see any solution. All I need is the button part and they want 2/3'ds the cost of what I payed for the camera just for the back panel. Lesson learned, not using the Rapid strap and back to the Nikon neck strap.
