Top 20 Panasonic Lumix DMC-LZ2 Digital Camera - Page 9 Questions & Answers

Are the batteries inserted correctly?

Usually this type of repair is not covered under waranty. You should be able to get it repaired but at your own cost. Try contacting the maker of your camera and see if they will repair it for you at a cost.

You may try to gently force it open as something may have gotten on the lens cover itself 'pop/derbies' thinking out loud or if you have accidently dropped it on it's cover there may be an obstruction or bent lens which may be preventing it from opening.
Better to force it open and keep it open that have it stuck closed.
By the way if it's still under warranty. Take it or send it in right away so they can fix it for free. You may pay some gas money or shipping but hey it will be fixed.

Why don't you use a card reader to download the movies to a folder you create on your desktop? It's much faster than using the camera.

Do you have the battery in wrong? That's easy to do...I've done it myself.

Change your battery . Its time to change the time. If the problem persist after changing battery format the memory card and try.

To get the pictures from your camera to your computer. Turn the camera off, remove the sd card, then plug the camera into the computer using the usb cord and transfer the pics as if you had a sd card inserted in the camera.

ok , tru to put a new extra memory (sd) or view the camera configuration , the images in n some occations have sved in a no accepted folder for the camera.

Your problem may be due to weak/worn out batteries or corrosion on the battery contacts inside the camera which can prevent the full power of the batteries from flowing into the camera. Try this free fix before you do anything else: remove the batteries and wipe the camera contacts firmly with a dry cloth (heavy corrosion may require cleaning with a wire brush, steel wool, or sandpaper). Remove any residue that may have fallen into the battery compartment during cleaning, then wipe both ends of the batteries and place them back in the camera. This cleaning clears the problem about 90% of the time. If it doesn't work for you, your batteries may need to be replaced, or the camera may have a problem that requires professional repair.

Unfortunately, this is not a problem that I would attempt myself, and unless you are experienced with micro-electronics I would seriously caution you from attempting it yourself.
This is not an old camera model, do you still have a warranty? If so, I suggest bringing it (or sending it) to the nearest Panasonic authorized repair center.
If it is out of warranty, call and find out what Panasonic charges for servicing this camera model. Typically they have a flat rate for servicing each particular model. You might consider picking one up on Ebay if the repair cost is too high. But please know that this is not like old SLR's which could be repaired at home.

Small button to right of screen has to be toggled left, then pushing up or down alters shutter speed. Can be a bit fiddly, gentle perseverance is called for.

try to plug it back in with out the battery see if that works if not turn off pc then plug it back in

Hello

Thank you for using FixYa for your problem

Always check the batteries first but if is it still giving the same fault, your camera is faulty.
It should be taken to an authorized repair centre for a repair estimate. Very few digital cameras have any user-serviceable parts.

Anything is fixable but it is more "is it cost effective"

Is the card full of pictures? Download them and format the card in the camera...should speed things up.

Have you tried manually trying to pull out the part that is pushed in?
