End of life?

Both myself and Juli bought the same camera at the same time when we both were in Singapore a few years back. It was cheaper in Singapore than Malaysia (at that time la...). And lately this camera has shown a worrying symptoms. The photos will end up too bright or too dark. Then there seems to be visible lines on most photos. Because we both experienced the same problem so we concluded that probably the camera has come to it's end of life.

Then, last week when I was in Puteri Pacific I had a chance to snap this beautiful orchids at the hotel lobby and the pictures surprisingly turn out OK. Well, more than OK I would say.

Does this means it will survive another year or 2 perhaps? Hopefully it will. It has serve me well for the past 3 or 4 years. These days I am using the camera as a voice recorder to record my lectures. At least it work well in that area.

Oh and if you are wondering what camera I am talking about, it is this one.
