Fixing modern plastics is a real problem - I haven't faced this yet on my laptops, but deal with it often on my car (an Italian sports car for which replacement parts are not always easily available). Special plastic epoxies really do adhere better to plastic than regular epoxy, but in general if an adhesive isn't designed for a specific kind of plastic or composition material then it will soon fail. On some plastics, the best solution is a heat weld - you can get spoon-like attachments for soldering irons for welding plastics this way. Good camera repair shops can often handle plastic repairs. The 701 plastic in particular is very much like a material that was popular on some SLRs 4-5 years ago (e.g., the slightly rubbery soft finish is just like what Sigma called a 'Zen' finish on their cameras). If I ever crack a case a photo shop is probably the first thing I'll try. - David
