Camera will turn on but screen stays black and wont shut off

send me a email [email protected] and I will send you the info to retreve the error code to find out why the set is shutting down. Be sure to include the moodle number and symptoms with your email

Faulty or dead battery.

Since there is nothing you can do to fix this at home you have 2 choices, replace the camera or send it back to the manufacturer for exchange (very expensive)

We would like to help but you never gave us the make and model of your camera.

Hi,

Please try to visit below link

Olympus Camera

The shutter is jammed shut, lens unit needs to be serviced.

That sounds like a sticky lens shutter. They usually have to be replaced, as they usually will need parts. When the camera is working look inside the lens and take a picture(with flash turned off). You should see a black shutter door clicking shut in the lens. When the camera acts up, look inside the lens again. If the door is staying shut full time, that is your problem.

the same thing happens to my camera. did u ever end up fixing it

Its supposed to shut off unless you have a higher end camera.Upgrade.

Does the camera turn off or does the screen go black? if the screen goes black but the power lamp stays green then the screen is just turned off (power save mode), If it’s just the screen to turn on the LCD. There are 3 buttons just to the right of the screen, press the center button.
