My Pentax Option M30 will not stay on in camera mode. It comes on, the lens zooms out, then back in, and the camera shuts off. Plyaback mode works fine, and the menu is accessible from playback mode. For those experiencing a similar problem, you can turn your camera on in playback mode if you hold down the playback buttton while turning the camera on. You can access the complete menu from there, but there's nothing in it that helps with camera mode problem.

The same thing happened with my camera, I gave it to a freind for her husband to look at it. He said when turning on face the lens side down (to the ground) when turning off hold lens side up right (to the sky). this worked for mine. I don't know if he did anything else to it but when I zoomed I got lens error. I did what he said and it took several tries but it did work... please post if this helps you.

Make sure your battery is charged and if so, take it back to the place you bought it from.
