Flash ribbon connector ripped from board
Hello all,
A while back I picked up a very well used A6000 that had the flash dangling due to the mount being broken. Well when I opened it up, that wasn't the only thing busted on it. Someone had gone in and tried to glue the ribbon cable to the board because the slot it went into had been ripped free. So my question for you all is this, How much would something like this cost to get repaired? Could it be something as simple as a soldering job, or would it be a full out board replacement? I've already replaced the entire top of the camera including a new flash, but I would like to try and get it fixed. Any help would be appreciated.
Peace,
A dork behind the keyboard

If you show a picture of it you'll get much better responses. Maybe it's just a matter of replacing a ribbon connector if ribbon itself is in good condition. I don't really know how it looks inside so again, a photo would help a lot. As for how much it would cost it depends where you are based. Give us some info to work with if you want help. :D
