LCD bleed

joeyk49 · Jun 29, 2006

I was looking, but passed on a fairly nice Minolta 600si which had a tiny amount of LCD bleed. I still have pangs because it was a good buy at about $30.00. Was I right to pass on it or did I miss a bargain?

Whats an LCD repair likely to cost? Anybody know???

Joe,
I have a sneaking feeling that a replacement LCD screen would be a lot more than what you would have paid for the camera,

I have several Minoltas with LCD bleed, it was real common in the 7000, 8000i and the 9000, it has never effected any of the cameras in anyway that woud comprimise taking pictures, for $30 bucks for a 600 you passed a heck of a deal, the mechanics of the camera would last a long time, as far as getting it repaired, that is pretty much a lost cause, i woud have bought it and shot it as is until it died....
