How do i fix lens error?
Hello
The problem is that the lens has become stuck in the barrel
after dropping it. There are some DIY solutions you could try, but the
probability is that you will have to get it fixed by a professional.
Use
these at own risk as it may further damage the camera.
Firstly ,
try connecting your ac adapter or usb cable.
Try holding the
shutter button while switching on the camera.
Look at the lens ,
and if some of the lens 'circles' is misaligned or not concentric then
try wiggling it (while holding camera lens down).
Try gently
pushing or pulling the lens when it extends but this is risky as it may
cause the lens barrel to slip out of its guidance system.
Another
way to do this is to place the camera lens down on a hard surface and
then power it up. Be sure to use a soft cloth or something similar as to
not scratch your lens or casing. Let the lens push the camera up and
down a few times and sometimes the little resistance provided by the
camera is enough to get things going again.
Try hitting your
camera near the lens on the body with the soft tissue on the palm of
your hand.
Other than that , I would take the camera to a repair
center for a evaluation to see if it would cost more to repair than to
replace the camera.
If it is still under warranty I would suggest
you take it in before trying any of these steps and remove any
off-brand batteries or accessories as some stores are really fussy about
warranty repairs on camera's with non-brand accessories.
Hope
the advise is useful.

Do you leave camera on as it is charging through
Hi it dont need to be on whilst charging, some cameras will switch themselves on when you plug them into the computer, but you can still turn it off, now you need to bare in mind that unless you are using a powered usb port is one that plugs into the mains then into your computer you may have problems charging the camera enough through the computers own usb port, it may still charge so you will have to try some cameras will just power up enough to enable you to transfer pictures onto your computer.
give it a try and see how you get on, it wont matter if the camera is on or off whilst plugged into computer how ever it will charge quicker with the camera off if it will even charge at all
Camara lens on my C182
I am afraid you have the notorious Lens stuck problem. It is usually caused by mechanical failure of the lens motor or grit/dust/sad in the lens gears. You can force the camera to try retracing by
1)Remove the battery and hold for two min
2)Put it back press and hold the power button for 10 seconds.
3)When the lens motor attempts to retrace the lens, gently assist it by pushing the lens in, then repeat steps 1 and 2 to reset the error code.
If it does not work then I am afraid the camera has to be disassembled to fix this problem. Time for a trip to the service center?
Pictures has stripes and are reddish
you have problem in lens unit that's why all your picture has a lines or stripes and reddish. If you can open your camera and check the lens unit try to clean and adjust the shutter, it should be the shutter move smoothly.also check the cable if not broken and connected properly.
if you can't do this bring to service center.
goodluck and thank you my friend
The camera does not take pictures,itis completely
hi. you have problem in shutter it was not work properly or not opening due to stuck up or damage parts. if you know how to repair its better you need to do is check the shutter that you can found inside of the lens unit and try to adjust or clean the said parts. If you can't do this bring to service center.
goodluck my friend
Lens won't retract
Lens probably does not extend or retract because of debris or a misaligned gear box. The
lens can in about 50% of the cases be repaired without having to replace it. Try to
return to manufacturer first. If you're out of warranty, there are
third party place that fix them such as
camera lens repairs. If you want to do it yourself, there are also free
camera repair guide websites that show you how to replace the lens, the replacement part is usually available on ebay.
After i drop my camera the lens system stucks and
Hi,
Usually it's sand or grit interfering with the lens extension mechanism. Or the camera's been dropped with the lens extended. Or the camera has been powered on, but the lens had been blocked preventing its extension. Or the battery ran down with the lens extended. If the camera is still under warranty, before trying any of these, please please first contact your camera's maker to see if they'll cover the repair, or to determine how much they'll charge for the repair. Who knows, you might get lucky. But if they quote you a number that's higher than the value of your camera, you may want to consider the following methods.
Place the camera flat on its back on a table, pointed at the ceiling. Press and hold the shutter button down, and at the same time press the power-on button. The idea is that the camera will try to auto focus while the lens is extending, hopefully seating the lens barrel guide pins in their slots. Blow compressed air in the gaps around the lens barrels with the idea of blowing out any sand or grit that may be in there jamming the lens. Other variations include blowing with a hair dryer in “no heat” setting, or sucking the gaps with a vacuum (careful with this one).
Thank you!
