DROPPED CAMERA This weekend I dropped my Nikon Coolpix L3 and in the top right corner it's popped out a little and the front wont close and theres a noise when you shake the camera. WHAT SHOULD I DO?

The lens doesn't align with the sensor any longer. The body is bent, so I think a repair is impossible.

Hi, Unfortunately there's no way to fix that yourself. With damage like that it's 50/50 that even a professional could fix it and you'd be look at a large bill. I'd honestly suggest getting a new camera over having it repaired.

my nikon coolpix s230 was dropped with the lens out and no it wont go in either. in the inside of the lens a piece of plastic was forced in front of the lens that takes the picture. The warrenty will return and exchange my camera. Good Luck with fixing you camera! Im glad im not the only person this happened to !

ill need to wait till my camera fixes to tell u step by step

Was the camera dropped or hit? See my other posts on this problem.

your lens are stuck! did you drop the camera? you need to get a repair on the lens

I think this was a firmware fault on some cameras. Check with Nikon to see if there is a new firmware for your particular camera. This can be downloaded free of charge and uploaded to the camera via USB.

The following blog outlines some repair options for a lens error:

This is an awkward one. If you were clever enough to replace or repair the lens assembly you wouldn't be writing here so all I can advise is to have a very close look at the lens and see if you can notice any slight variation in it's positioning. If you can see part of the lens is pushed slightly to the left then with a very fine blade lever the lens from the left to the right and at the same time switching on. It's often easier to get someone else to do the switching on and off for you. Make sure the batteries are fully charged too. If you can get the lens to come out a little way then keep trying and it's possible it will realign and start working. Of course it's possible you've fractured a nylon gear or two so that will be a specialist job. All I can tell you is that if you can't get the thing to work yourself it's going to be very expensive. Maybe another check on Ebay for a transplant possibility. BMW
