The lens is damaged.you want to change it.
I have the same problem with IXUS 950 IS.
When Power ON the camera, there is an error message "Lens Error, Restart Camera". The lens is not coming out of the camerabody and the camera is switching off.
When looking to the lens from the outside the black 2 screens are not fully closed, but can opened freely without force. Location just before the first lens.
Possible cause manual is pressing on the lens after making a picture or sand in lens system.
I cleaned the camera, also with the support of an airflow from hairblower, clockwise / anticlockwise rotation outer ring does not solve the problem.
Also tapping hand when camera is switched on does not solve the issue.
I see small screws which can be removes easily, but the front coverage is still fixed in the upper part. I cannot remove the front. In that case I can see the lens more clearly and can try to blow with air to clean the lens is necessary.
Any tip is welcome.
