i got some scratch on my hero 7 black.. [ New ]

[sunnylai]

Hi, i have my hero 7 black on my snare drum and i just fall down.

There are some scratches on the camera and the edge, i'll show the picture below. i'm wondering will it get rusty or not?

If so, what will be the process to get the warranty? My situation might be a little difficult because i bought it when i travel to the US and now i'm back to Taiwan.

I know it's my responsibility to afford the repair fees, and i'm glad to do so if that's possible to fix the flaw.

plz help me, it's kind of annoying when someone get a new toy but end up like this...

hi,

do not worry.

my lens cover on h5 looked like it was in a war.

but never rust.

I think it is aluminium alloy.

the scratch on the lens could affect the image, maybe is not visible, as the camera works with focus at infinite...

just me,

robert
