I have this camera and i love it. Ive had it for 2 years and never dropped it and always was careful with it. One day it just shut down and the lens cover wouldnt open and I got the error message. What the heck!! It seems like after 2 years theses cameras stop working :[

I have the same problem. I'm getting a Lens Cover Error and the lens cover is 99% of the way open, but there's no way I can try to push the lens cover all the way open. The LENS on the CoolPix S6 does not move in or out, just the lens cover moves to reveal the lens. Sometimes I've tried to turn the camera on and off ... 10 times or so and every time I get the "lens cover error", which means no display and it is not possible to take any images. I've had the camera for 2.5 years and this lens cover error is happening more and more often.

The Lens Cover Error came up shortly after using it for a few photos when I turned it back on to show my family. Mine is 2 years old and it's been a great camera.

I have a similar problem but it only appears when the battery is discharged. Goes away when I charge the camera fully. I'm wondering if the battery needs to be replaced.

This actually JUST happened to me
I took mine to the beach and got sand in it
I took my camera apart, cleaned it and then
lifted my lens with a knife when i turned my
camera on, and now it works
