Measure batteries to make sure they are 'fresh' I have run into many bad 'new' batteries. And if they are the same brand people sometimes put the old ones back in by mistake.
Other than that without a lot more information there are just far too many things that could cause this problem - from impact to water damage to circuit failure.
SOURCE: Pentax E10 will not power up ( w/ fresh batteries) !!
Grab the lens when it extends so that it won't retract. Camera will power off. Some careful pushing and pulling on the lens assembly seems to unstick whatever is causing the malfunction. Power it up, it will retract. Power on again to check results.
SOURCE: Flash won't work
Try in custom menu I think. Switch shutter release whilst charging firmware switch whilst flash charging a couple of times. Had sinilar thing with ist DS after firmware update.
SOURCE: power / batteries
Chances
are that you are not using CR-V3 camera batteries in your *ist DL.
I have tried 2400mAh NiMH rechargable batteries and brand new alkaline
batteries in an attempt to save money.
Neither lasted anywhere
near as long as the CR-V3 batteries!
While you may be paying $15-$20
for two CR-V3 batteries, they last a LONG time!
One of the
advantages of DSLRs (and digital cameras in general) is that you save
money by no longer buying film and paying for developing/prints. But,
even at $20 for two CR-V3 batteries, I save money! I am able to take
several hundred photos on a pair of batteries (I think the manual says
500 ) instead of $10-$15 ($2-$7 for film $8 dev/print) for every
24-36 photos!
