Is the camera covered for damage/repairs if it is dropped or if something is spilled on it? Is it possible to review policy before buying it?

It is covered for spills & drops. I called Warrantech and they explained that under the ADH(Accidental Damage Handling)policy, just about everything is covered with the exception of the memory card and the pictures on it. He went on to explain that as long as it was not intentional damage, it's covered.

Other than if it arrives damaged during transit, no. As with any manufacturers' warranty, it covers some things but not if it were due to something you did, accidental or not, or from regular wear and tear. The only thing I can recommend is that you can probably purchase some form of insurance if you feel the need to do so to protect you from unexpected damage or theft. I hope this helps.

For the cracked screen you have to order a new digitizer. As far as i know the screen and the gorilla glass are glued together. For the scratched camera lens, you just replace the rear housing/faceplate and its good as new.

I called the vendor. They gave me a warranty. It's through a third party. I love my camera and the bundle. I was checking about the "grey' market.

As someone who just successfully used their warranty, the answer is yes - in a specific circumstance.I don't believe it covers damage to quad itself, if say, an arm gets bent or a motor drops out. The coverage is for the camera. So if your gimbal gets bent from an accidental crash (*raises hand*) or the camera itself gets busted, which renders the whole unit effectively unusable, then you should be covered under this plan.

From what I understand it to mean is that there was a problem with the camera and the company fixed it and are stating that it is now as good as a new one. It may even be covered by a warranty in some cases.

Manufactures warranty is covered for one year from the purchased date some items may cover two to three years Check the user guide with your digital camera regarding the rules, if it is applicable to the problem you re encountering, if you re unsure contact the store and seek further advise, if you have purchased extended warranty you will have to check if these covers accidental damages,

It's a sturdy camera but I'd want a case. I have one for mine basically to keep the screen from getting scratched.

I had same problem after I dropped the camera and I had to buy a new camera. I tried a couple camera shops and went home and ordered a camera from amazon.

It will Only cover problems inside the machine, no physical damage that doesn't affect the use of the machine. Unfortunately, it doesn't cover spills, drops or losses. If wouldn't cover sand because the company who made the camera didn't cause the damage

You can purchase a warranty with the camera. I don't know about getting repairs done.

Yes it is covered under the warranty. You may have to produce documentation proving that you're the purchaser.

The screen should be covered by the warranty IF you purchased the camera less than 1 year ago. I shipped mine to Olympus to be repaired and am waiting for the camera to be returned. From my research, there are other Olympus cameras that have had the same problem. I suggest you also let the BBB know about this - and perhaps consumer reports. If Olympus if refusing to fix a known flaw - this is a serious issue.

The camera comes with the manufacturer 1 year warranty(against manufacturer defect) BUT I added 3 years total care/accidental damage warranty from Sony for 30 dollars that is in case the camera get dropped & breaks and they will have to replace it for free. Call Sony and ask them for extended total care/extended warranty, it is worth it.

I have not paid any attention to the warranty conditions. Water resistant? ..... I live in the Puget Sound area and have left the camera out in the rain for as much as four days at a time with no problem.

They don't unfortunately. So, what I suggest is getting the camera/lenses insured via a personal property policy with your insurance company. On a side note though, the lenses are not all that great.

I got a SX70, but it looks like new. Even if the vinyl is gone, the camera still works. You can get replacements for ~$20. But what is the intension of your question?
