Zos, you swapped the good ring (lens mount) from the K-7. Can you do the same for the bottom plate? If not, order a Bottom Plate, as changing it is very easy. Do buy a JIS (Japanese Industrial Standard) "MOODY, made in the USA, Screwdriver Set for $ 16 from Amazon com. The cheap Philips Cross Point is not the right screwdriver. As for the scratched LCD Screen, it can be polished using Fine Grit Turtle Shell Car Polishing Compound. This is labor intensive work as it has to be done gently. Use masking tape to cover the area around the LCD Screen. Since the camera (& the sensor) worked fine after the fall, it will be safer & smarter to send in a "good" looking gear, so that CRIS will have little or no excuse for refusing warranty repair. Better to play it safe. Good Luck. Regards. Bipin - from that far away enchanting land
