Turns on and then immediately turns off

I'm having the same exact problem! Had my camera at the beach and it worked fine all day. Got home and took it out of the beach bag and now it turns on (green light flashes and lens extends) but then not even a second later it turns off (red light flashes and the lens retracts). The battery is fully charged!! What can I do?!

Your fix could be as simple as cleaning the camera's battery contacts, or it could be something more serious and expensive. Before you pay for expensive repairs that you may or may not need, check the Kodak Help Center by clicking on the link below. It uses a simple Q&A format to diagnose problems and propose solutions.

Wet digital camera

I have had a camera do this before and I left it in a bowl rice for about a week. Then it turned right on. Since rice will absorb the moisture we cant find or see. But I would make sure to take it apart as much as possible. :) Hope that works. GL

I have a Fuji finepix j38 that is appox. 8 months old. When I turn the camera on, the lens comes out, immediately retracts, and "zoom error" comes up on the LCD. I can view pictures, but can't take any. ...

I thimk your problem is that you have sand betwin the lens mechanism and that cause the immediately retract.you can try to apply air pressure near the lens but with care

Sony cybershot, but displays neg through lcd

This happened because you are not a camera repair technician. You took a complicated piece of electronic equipment apart without any knowledge of what you were doing. I'm glad that at least, your pics turn out.

Kodak Easyshare M340 is fully charged but turns off immediately

I had the same problem after a day at the beach. What I did was get a can of compressed air (from the computer section) and blow air around the lens as I repeatedly turned it on. It took about five cycles, but I eventually cleared whatever was preventing the lens from fully opening.

Good luck.
