kx DOA

zone · 08-20-2010, 03:50 PM

Just received my kx from amazon today and I put in the batteries that came included and turned it on, no power. Put in a brand new set of E2 lithiums same thing, no power.

Am I missing something, or did I just get a dead camera? I followed the instructions in the manual.

Sounds like a dead camera to me and don't take this the wrong way, just pointing out the obvious, but make sure the batteries are inserted correctly.

I got my Kx about 5 months ago, did what you did, just put the batteries in, no other set up and the camera turned right on. I'd return it asap.

Make sure you put the batteries in the right way before sending it in. Sorry that this have to happen to you though. Hope that it will be resolved quick!
