My Benq C500 Digital camera is now unable to make a decent focus. All image are now blurry. I've tried to reset the camera to factory default but nothing changes.

Possible that you gat a slow shutter speed. Or your camera might be getting faulty. When the shutter gets damaged then the blurry focus wont change unless its fixed. The four main causes of blurry photos are:

1. Out Of Focus
2. The subject moves while the shutter is open
3. The camera moves while the shutter is open
4. Depth Of Field is too shallow

Unless its just technical or hardware you will need to visit a technician. or replace the Shutter.

Make sure to remove the battery first ... make sur your camera has a full battery charge ... then select "MENU" scroll through options until you find "FORMAT". This will re-set all your settings back to factory settings ... you will lose any saved pictures on the internal memory only. ALSO when your camera light goes on try to hit the PREVIEW OR EDIT SElection. I* cant see how the memory card being removed would cause your display to permently be damaged. You can also try to connect your USB/AV port. Use your A/V cable with the two input connections to a TV to see if it is putting out an image. Hope all goes well

That did the trick for me! Thanks!

Hi,

Based on the information you've provided, it seems that the Lens Mechanism of the Camera is damaged when it fell down. The Lens of the Camera is not focusing properly while capturing the images. As the issue is with the lens mechanism, the previously captured images are displaying normally. I suggest that you try resetting the Camera and check if the issue can be resolved.

Performing a manual power reset

Turn off the camera.

Remove the battery pack.

Press and hold the power button for 30 seconds.

Allow the camera to remain without power for 60 seconds.

Reinsert the battery pack.

Turn on the camera.

To reset the Camera back to factory default, select the INITIALIZE Option from the SET UP1 Menu of the Camera to OK.This will set the user defined settings back to factory default. The images and videos will not get deleted.

If the issue persists, service may be required.

Thanks for contacting FixYa.

When operating any digital camera, the camera tries to capture the best focus and exposure for that particular scene. By pressing the shutter button half-way down, the focus and exposure is being set. There will be a green circle on the upper left hand corner of the screen, then your camera is ready to take the picture. Slowly depress the shutter the rest of the way down to take the picture.

Also try to reset the camera back to factory defaults as there could be a setting that is causing the images to be blurry. To reset the camera - have the camera in shooting mode - go to Menu - left arrow to reset and press ok. Highlight yes and press ok. This will reset the camera back to factory settings. See if this clears up the blurry images.

If it is still blurry you may want to send to Olympus for evaluation and repair service.
