Camera turns on zooms in out etc makes some noises then goes off
SOURCE: My pentax optio M30 turns off after it's on...
Pentax Tech Support will have the remedy- this is where to answer lays- there is no user remedy.

This suggests the lens motor/gearing has failed- I guess other aspects of the system wait for the lens to extend before coming active - possibly due to the waterproofing system. You can only go back to Pentax with this problem.

Not really, it sounds like the lens has been bumped while it was extended. Unfortunately, the "buzz" you hear is the gears stripping one another. The only fix is to have the lens assembly replaced, which usually costs upwards of $200. I see this problem at least 3 times a week in my shop.

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