I have taken mine apart and one of the flexible circuits is completely broken. It cannot be repaired and a new flexible circuit is needed. I'm going to try the service centres, see if they'll sell one.

I read somewhere else on the interweb that US customers were getting the repair for free.

I have the same issue. The fact that the viewfinder works is good news, it means the CCD is still OK so I'm hoping it's just a ribbon issue. I'm going to take it apart today and see...
