All my camera does when I put the on swith on is to blink green and then shut off. The battery is new and I tried other new batteries and this is not the problem.The book says to plug in an a/c adapter.I don't have one. I am about to but one.Kodak wants to charge me $135 to repair it and they can go to....

Hi Kristoni...I had the same problem, and fixed it. This is what you do. Get yourself a good strong magnet it dosen't have to be big just strong. We are dealing with a stuck shutter so we have to spring it back.
Turn the camera on and turn it upside down, slide the magnet to the right of the tripod mounting hole onthe round portion of the lenz you may hear a click but you will see the LCD screen lite up. Its good for taking only one pic then your back to sq. one. You have to do this everytime but its a fix.
Merry Christmas.

SOURCE: kodak z812 is problem
I had the same issue with my same brand/model camera for months. I used it maybe twice and then it decided not to turn on, no matter what I did. I finally got in touch with Kodak (the first time they told me to try different batteries, which of course did not help). I spoke with someone who figured out that I had a faulty memory card. When I removed my memory card, I was able to turn my camera on. I had to reset my date, but once I did that (still keeping the memory card out) I was able to take pictures just fine. Give that a try and see if it helps!
Another word of advice, if turns out to be your memory card, you'll need to purchase a new one. Kodak, of course, provides troubleshooting for their brand memory cards as well. Just an FYI.
Hope this helps!

while you turn try and turn it on slow twist and pull lens outwards(gently while power on /off) and it will retract back in and power on.Work perfectly after.

Remove the batteries and clean the battery contacts inside the camera
with a soft cloth (a heavy buildup on the contacts may require cleaning
with a fine wire brush, steel wool, or sandpaper). Remove any residue
that the cleaning leaves in the camera, and then reinstall the
batteries. This clears most power-on problems, but if yours persists,
check the Kodak troubleshooting guide at:

The Z612 uses SD or MMC cards. It will not accept SDHC cards. You'll need to use cards 2GB and smaller.

thia happened to me and the camera was under warranty (bought in Late Nov. 07 and not used until Jan 08. Used a total of 4 times when the problem occurred..Lens also will not retract. Took to store where purchased, still with the Kodak tag on and was told I had to send Kodak..you guessed it, I received a letter saying the cost to repair is $160. and their tech had found blunt trama to camera... THE LENS HAS TO BE REPLACED. It was never dropped, banged or anything that could have caused this. so i guess I'm out the $240.00 I paid for this camera as certainly don't want to spend $160 as this would make the camera cost $400.00 AND IT CERTAINLY IS NOT WORTH THAT. CONSIDERING THAT I ONLY TOOK 80 PICTURES IT WAS A VERY EXPENSIVE MISTAKE BUYING THIS CAMERA.
I have exactly the same problem with exactly the same results. I did get it to turn back on once by forcing the lens back into the camera. It worked for a while until I tried to get the zoom to work. Then...same problem. Don't know what to do from here!
