have a canon 350d that needs fixing. one of the card reader pins has moved slightly to the right and now has a card error. may be worth throwing away unless anyone on here can help fix the cam. happy to pay a reasonable price but not more than the cam is worth lol. x

Fix it...you need a thin plastic tube ( like the ones that come with products like WD40 spray cans) and carefully locate it over the bent pin and ease it back into position. I have done it with tweezers in the past...but this was easier....

If it is totally out then you might have a real problem....

Thats super easy to fix.

Just get a thin piece of metal and bend the pin back into shape. Its literally a 30 second job. Unless you are really ham fisted, you can do it yourself so easily.
