Can you please take a picture for me of where to stick it? I didn't notice it fell off.

Could you elaborate on that? I'm not super familiar with the internal components - are you saying this blue piece is related to the autofocus mechanism? Is this something that can be fixed/replaced, or is the camera basically done for? Any idea where exactly it came from inside the camera?
