bent camera prongs

[shmoo]

anybody else had this problem. i managed to bend up the prongs where you slide the memory card in at on my friend's canon. don't worry, i feel terrible:(

anybody know of a way to unbend them? i've had another friend take it apart, and decide not to touch them. we know are very weak.

took her to the columbia photo, a shop in town, they said all they could do was send it off.

i'd rather get her fixed at home without sending her off, i've even considered buying another board (blahhh, as my friend put it) and he could assemble it.

any thoughts?

thanks guys

sorry man but usually bent CF pins = trip to manufacturer. some have been able to unbend them and retain functionality, but it's not easy and almost guarantees a cut pin..

yeah, i've still got the broken fucking camera. attempted to order a new board, and they ended up being out of stock. at least i got my trash papers back.. i'm ready to get this thing fixed and move on. thanks for the insight though
