This is due too earlier expierence with the same faults..
BMD Does not repair products on component level. They will exchange the whole board were the connector is on.. In this case the whole main PCB.
Which in terms of laybor and parts will exceed the price of a new one.!!
If the HDMI was defective right out of the box it would be exchanged under waranty for a new camera.
But a user damaged HDMI port is not waranty.. And if BMD would offer a repair the cost would be higher then a new camera.
So find some repair guy that does televisions, stereo's etc.. Ask them if they have expierence in "fine pitch SMD repair"
They "might" be able to repair it.. But if the traces on the PCB broke. It will be broke forever.. These traces are not repairable in such a way it will work perfectly fine again..
Be aware that if anyone screws open the camera the waranty will be void (if any was still on it..)
