Plz anybody can help? My camera fall on groung

sir,
Canon PowerShot SD850 IS / IXUS 950 IS Digital Camera in this both models usually this problem appears, open the camera then take out the lens unit, below this unit you can see the iris control stepper motor and related small wheels this may be worn out or may be misplaced, correct it. if still problem,open the lens unit to check the possible break on the iris lens connecting cable.

The cam could have hung up because there are errors within the software. So to reset remove the battery and keep aside. Allow about half an hour for the residual voltage to fall off the circuit so as to reset. Press down the power /play/rec switch. Now replace the battery and switch on . If the cam hangs up then it is confirmed that there are errors within and need a serious check . Seeking help from the authorized service /support centre is most ideal. Take estimate and decide.

It's a design fault that Canon is not admitting. Google this problem and you'll find hundreds of us.

Use a card reader instead.

When you are taking the picture are you following the correct procedure? Press shutter button and hold half way till camera focuses. Then without releasing it press it fully down.

i have the same camera as you do and from what expert told me, i have to ship it to Canon or it's authorized dealer for repair. The repair costs about $100 dollars.

In my opinion, it's a rip off!!! :S

sounds like the needle is worn down...try to replace the needle.....the buzzing sound often comes from open groung connections...that can come from the cartridge itself to the jacks on the back of the unit....bad ground and buzzing is normal for turntables and will also dramatically affect your sound level because the buzz or groung fault is higher than the sound being picked up by the needle.....open grounds can be checked with a meter set to continuity....to check for continuos line feed with no breaks in the lines.....if you find a broken line ...then that's your problem....it is a very simple repair....if the ground problem is in the cartridge...replace the cartridge which comes with a new needle as well...it's cheaper to buy it that way in stead of just bying a needle...if the ground fault is anywhere after the cartridge...then it's just a mater of replacing or repairing the line..again..very cheap repair....also...if the cartridge just clips on to the shell, sometimes it makes bad connections there too....that can just be cleaned with a little sand paper and it will work again....good luck

Is th camera shake indicator on when you go to take pics? Are you pressing the button half way to allow the camera to focus?

Hi, You have an defective lensunit it must be replaced by your Canon repaircenter.
If yo can do it by yourself to repair Rotronica in the Netherlands will sell you a new zoomunit.
