Lens error, weird buzzing sound - Cameras

You should first try to clean out the lens and the area around it. There possibly could be some trapped dirt in one of the nooks and is preventing the camera lens from sliding out properly. Try tugging a bit on the camera lens to see if it gives, that may knock whatever is holding the lens back. If all else fails, you should take your camera to be repaired, Olympus has great customer support so you'll be in good hands.
Good luck!

Hi there just like to informed you that 2 reason can make a noise.
1. low or old battery's using.
Solution: replace it if too old or charged it fully.

2. Lens error. Internal lens guide pin if damaged then the camera goes off with bad noise.

Solution: repair or replaced the lens guide pin.
Thanks & waiting for your feedback.

Your PS2 lens is displaced from its original position that is what scratching your Discs and makes weird noises too.There can possibly be another reason for them ,your PS2's reading lens is dirty and it is covered by a layer of dust that scratches your Discs and makes sounds too.
You should first clean the lens of your PS2 watch this video to know how to clean your PS2's lens:


Disk read errors are mainly due to dirty or worn out lens,so clean your PS2's lens to get rid of this problem and as for that sound that will get fixed by cleaning lens if still it makes that sound then you will have to take your PS2 to repairer to set the lens height.
Thank you!

Try jiggling the lens. Use compressed air to blow out any grit around the lens barrel. If that doesn't do it, you'll need to get the camera serviced.

This is probably THE most common failure among digital cameras. There's a halfway chance of fixing it yourself, described here: http://camerarepair.blogspot.com/2007/12/fixing-lens-error-on-digital-camera.html

as you have only had this for 3 months it should still be within warranty,

approach the place you purchased from for a warranty repair / replacement

Both of you guys are having "Lens Errors". That means that your lens have sustained some sort of damage and will not open properly so they need to be sent into the Casio repairs department. Call them at 800-706-2534 and ext 2 and tell them that you have a lens error and they will tell you where to send your cameras. :)

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.

This seems like to lens extending motor has gone. If it is out of warranty and the cost of a repair is expensive as you have discovered You will have great fun taking it to bits But you will not be able to repair it. So -new camera- eventually
