I have a PowerShot A40 which was given to me several years ago. The last time I tried to put the memory card in it would not go in. I took it to a camera shop and was told that 2 of the prongs at the bottom of the memory card holder were bent. I was also told since it was an old camera it would be hard to find someone to fix it and even if I did find someone it would cost more to fix than the camera is worth.
Is this information correct? If I cannot fix it is there anything else I can do with it other than trashing it? Is it worth anything to someone for parts?
