Guess that's what ya get for buying sight unseen!!

Will a repair be costly or is there a way to shoot pictures straight to a lap top. Would probably be best to get it repaired, I guess.
Should have stuck to Nikon!!!
You'd think it would be a standard CF card socket used , so worth showing it to the local camerahouse and asking for a quote to repair it.

Can't be that expensive to take the cover off, undo a screw or two, unsolder some connections, drop in a new CF socket , and reverse the process.
