Focus error - can not get rid of . I have taken out the batteries and still comes on screen.

You don't need to drop a camera to get a lens error. Could be anything, from holding the camera in a wrong way (touching the lens barrel) or a bit of dust in the barrel or a gear, or a gear that breaks off. If the lens retracts correct when the camera is switched of, and comes out to the full extend when it is switched on, you should think everything is in working order. But when you say, the screen looks ver blurry that could be an indication, the lens is not coming out correct, or the focus mechanics does not work correct. I'm afraid you have to bring the camera in to a service centre (or buy a new one) if you can't solve this, by again take out the battery, charge the battery and reinsert the battery.

Try pressing the display button several times. This wil cycle you through different screen modus like with focus points, with histogram and even screen off. The display button is marked with a square that has a upright line to the left and one to the right. As long as you don't get an error message you should not reset the camera, because you lose all settings and date and time. But the reset button is behind the battery / memory stick door.

Most screens can be turned off for low battery usage. Check battery with tester or have it tested or replace battery and check menu and see if review screen is turned off. Rich

try to open the front case and blow compressed air to the lens barrel. It seems that your camera is full of sand inside.

Try the procedures in this tip.

Hi,the phone needs to be flashed to be restored back to normal working condition,its infected with a virus,and only flashing the entire phone memory can get rid of the virus,however this can be done by a qualified phone technician in your area.
Thanks and take care

take all the ram cards out and the battery also take out the clock battery for about 5 min this resets the mother board and gets rid of all the error codes that prevent the screen from coming on

In replacing the CRTs, there are multiple focus adjustments. The basic one first is the Mechanical lens adjustment on the CRTs, (in this case red), the second one is the Electronic Focus on the Screen/Focus Block on the front of the unit behind the front panel. The third focus and on of the most important is the Beam Centering Focus. (In this case RED CTR) It is located on the neck of the CRTs. They are the first set of adjustment rings up from the CRT Boards. If any of these focus adjustments are off they will cause a symptom like yours to occur. Normally these adjustments are made before any convergence adjustments are made. I would double check to see if the repairman made these adjustments.
I hope this helps

Had "FOCUS ERROR" appear on my Finepix S9500. The lens seemed to be stuck at the extremity of focus range. I resorted to hitting the camera on a table while turning it off (because this is when it sounded as though the focus motor was trying to move the lens back). Guess what? It worked!!!!!

No solution you can make- The motor mechanism is shot Depending on how long you have had the camera you may get it replaced or a repair price quoted. The repair price will be horrific buy the next camera.
