If you used batteries with the wrong voltage type, you damaged
components on one of the circuit boards. These cameras use very high
density surface mount technology. Many use flexi type circuit boards
with embedded component technology. The boards in these cameras are
considered non servable. The service people change the complete board
as a module, and then do the necessary adjustments for calibration if
necessary. You would have to send the camera out to the HP service rep
who is properly trained and equipped to service it.

Considering that this is an older model and is of only 1.2 mp, I would
strongly suggest you consider a newer camera. The 3 and 4 mp cameras
are much better, and far improved. The higher the mp of the camera, and
the better the lens, the sharper the pictures will be.

Is it easy to repair a digital camera? Mine seems to act weird after
I tried using Nimh 1800 types of batteries in it. Now it seems to
take picture just whenever it wants to, and won't obey commands
entered through the pressbuttons.
Model: HP Photosmart 215
