Hello

Thank you for using FixYa for your problem

Zoom has had a knock
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.

Please rate our solutions and if you still have problems please call back for more ideas to help you

Thanks

Your problem may be due to 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, the camera may have a problem that requires professional repair.

If this response helps, please take a moment to post a rating for me. "Very Helpful" would be appreciated.

Either the fresh batteries are bad (this can happen), or they were inserted improperly, or the camera is defective somewhere. Measure the voltage on the batteries with a multimeter (voltmeter). Alkaline (regular) AA batteries measure about 1.6v to about 1.5v when new. NiMH (rechargeable) measure about 1.24v when fully charged. Be sure to install them with the + terminal and the - treminal going in the right direction. There should be some indication of this in the battery compartment of the camera. Hope this helps.

I chose not to accept your premium assistance plan and the reason is your website lies that it is free..since your solution to my question is to get me to purchase something that you say is free,I have decided to find the answer on my own. Think about how deceitful your website is.......

Buy an inexpensive card reader to download your pictures to a folder you create on your desktop.

I had the same problem with mine. A lot of new cameras are very picky about what brand card you use. The only thing I can tell you is to get another card brand and try it then.

Also, card's have a little switch on them. Make sure it's on unlock.

You can go to batteries.com

sounds like you have shut off the lcd viewfinder part of your camera. go into the menu to make sure it is on

a. The battery is dead, recharge.

b. The battery is dead and cannot be recharged, must replace.

Take out the battery for like 10 minutes then put it back and turn it on.

It it doesnt work, then try putting a freshly charged battery on it.

Go into the setup menu and find "reset"..follow the on-screen instructions.

you should have dropped your camera down. try tapping the device when the message pops up. if it works then you are lucky if no then take it to a service centre to get it done. it costs about 60$

try formatting the memory card by connecting the cam to the computer. when the icon pops up right click on it and then click format. be sure not to do a quick format, but this process will erase all the data in the cam. so make a back up first,
