Panasonic Lumix DMC-tz1

Just recently my zoom stopped working. I took pictures with zoom one week ago but since then did not touch the camera. Tried to take pics this weekend and zoom button not working. I can zoom in up to X1 but then it says turn camera off and on. When I do that and try to zoom - does the same thing. Any suggestions? Thanks.

    Thanks. That what I was reading about it. I've tried cleaning the lens with the air cleaner (the one that you use for your keyboard) around the lens. I've noticed that the lens is not moving, so it is not the zoom button obviously. Even when I turn the camera on the lens is not moving anywhere. Batary was full, but I charged it to the fullest again and left the camera without batttaries for the full 24 hours (I've read it in other forum). Will try to put battaries and see what happens. Otherwise, I guess I will have to ge this replaced?

TPSA left video on

Check if you can take pictures , if you can take picture the same and tranfer them to computer, then it is either a faulty lcd display, or the display cable out of place

Lumix DMC-TZ1 Memory Card Error

Try formatting the new card in the camera. Also, download any pics from the old card using a card reader and then, format it in the camera.

Camera problem

I have a Lumix DMC-TZ1 and my camera is having simular problems. The camera turns on but the buttons don't work. I can not zoom or take pictures. I can turn the auto stabilizing on and can change photo modes by turning the nob. But the menu button, nav buttons are not doing anything. The screen goes on and everything. I have tried removing the battery and nothing happens.

When using the zoom button the cam stops working

This suggests the zoom motor has failed. As you only purchased it 2 weeks ago - it should be replaced under warranty
