Dropped Camera And Now Video Is Very Blurry And Hard To Make Out.
I accidentally dropped the camera from a pretty high height maybe about 10 feet. I tried to use it again but now the video barely looks like video. It is blurry and very hard to make it. Is this a permanent issue? Is there any way to fix it
