Focus, Shutter problem, and screetchy buzzing noise samsung s860

This is posted in the Projection TV section---to get real help post it again in the section of this site for Cameras.

Press right on the multiselector (marked with a one-handed clock) to cycle through the self-timer modes. Start the self-timer by pressing the shutter release button as usual.

Yes, the problem of your camera still repairable and I hope only adjustment of focus or cleaning of gear inside of the lens.

If you can open your camera and try to adjust the focus gear or clean the gear inside of lens.kindly check alos if the cable is not broken and connected properly.

goodluck and thank you my friend

I had a similar problem with this camera. although its likely you have damaged the camera (seek repair from authorised Samsung dealer. should have a 1 year warranty - although you may not be able to claim accidental damage) there is always a chance the batteries are stuffed. i spent hours trying to find out what was physically damaged before realising the AA batteries did not have enough CURRENT to support the camera. gave same symptoms. some new extra heavy duty batteries did the trick.

Worth a try before footing a large repair bill

Some thoughts...are you moving when you press the shutter button? Put your camera on a firm surface or a tripod and take a few shots....are they better? Do you press the shutter button half-way and allow the camera to lock in the focus before pressing the rest of the way?

It's the autofocus trying to focus. Focus on something and press the shutter halfway down and nnow you can point wherever without autofocus trying to refocus

try this steps

-make sure that the mode dial is in AUTO
-half press the shutter button and let the camera do an auto focus thing
-then full press the shutter button

if that does not work reset the unit press MENU > SET UP 2 . RESET this will restore the unit to factory settings and will not erase your pictures

then try this steps again

-make sure that the mode dial is in AUTO
-half press the shutter button and let the camera do an auto focus thing
-then full press the shutter button

I hate to say it but your camera needs to be serviced. Might not be worth the repair. Try to take it to a local repair center that would offer you a free estimate....

use energizer lithium batteries,that should fix the problem.also when taking picture put on auto and dont get too close or zoom in too tight,this will give you good focus and great shots.good luck.hope i helped

Since the camcorder returns to the auto shutter setting and the auto exposure setting when it's switched into Night Capture mode, I would say that might be your problem.  Change your shutter and exposure settings. To do this, switch to Camera mode, turn the menu dial to the setting you wish to change then press enter.  You may have to play with the settings until you get the desired picture. Remember, faster shutter speeds for faster action (stop action), and longer exposure settings for darker situations. Let me know if you need more help.
