The lens does not return to original closed position.

This happens due to over extension of lens by motor or encoder failure. Please try few things.
1. Remove battery wait for 20mts, replace with fully charged battery, lens may return to original position.
2. Struck up click button also give similar problem.

The manual of the camera does not give any solution to this problem. However, I have successfully fixed a canon with a similar problem. Make sure the camera is in "on" mode. Put, like, middle finger on the lens-housing, apply some light pressure and turn the camera off. With a little luck the gears that drive the lens should re-engage and return to their original position. I hope you have the same luck I did. Otherwise it could be an expensive repair.

Hi,

Here is a tip that I wrote about How toget a Digital Camera Lens to work again

Steps toRepair a Digital Camera Lens

Unfortunately, many cameras that fall prey to lens error problems can only be corrected by professional repair. But, here are some last resort troubleshooting steps that you can try that may correct it. They only seem to work for less than 40% of the lens errors, but if the camera is out of warranty (or repair cost approaches that of the camera), they're worth that try.

1.Check if something block it (maybe sand or smt like that
2. Never pushed lens manualy (you may broke it completly)
3.Just try to shake or slap it jently while open or close it.

Lens vertical home position sensor error 1
- Definition - [B]
The lens vertical home position sensor remains de-actuated 3.0
seconds after the lens starts returning to the home position.
- Possible causes -
· Lens vertical home position sensor defective
· Lens vertical drive motor defective
· DC power supply board defective (check FU303)

Try these procedures.

1.Most SLRs have the same problem.The paste which used to fix the reflection mirror with the metallic plate is usually rubber based, So there is a chance to the mirror to slide from its original position to down due to gravity.And particularly when you focus close ups the lens extends backward and the lens struck the mirror Positioning the mirror to its original position will solve your problem.
2.May be your camera batteries weak check it for its operating voltage.

Another common problem. Lens troubles. You have either knocked your lens out of alignment or you have a foreign body jamming up the works in the lens control unit. There have been many so called fixes for these problems but usually end up causing more problems than curing. You could check that you have fully charged new batteries. Some cameras need that extra kick to get them to open the lens fully. Worn out batteries can stop a sticky lens in it's tracks and tell the processor there is a problem and to close down. It's well worth trying before writing it off.
