20 Most Recent Polaroid I739M Digital Camera Questions & Answers

What exactly is a 'typ' camera ? Have you set instant review in the menu system ?

Hello

The problem is that the lens has become stuck in the barrel. There are some DIY solutions you could try, but the probability is that you will have to get it fixed by a professional.

Use these at own risk as it may further damage the camera.

Firstly , try connecting your ac adapter or usb cable.

Try holding the shutter button while switching on the camera.

Look at the lens , and if some of the lens 'circles' is misaligned or not concentric then try wiggling it (while holding camera lens down).

Try gently pushing or pulling the lens when it extends but this is risky as it may cause the lens barrel to slip out of its guidance system.

Another way to do this is to place the camera lens down on a hard surface and then power it up. Be sure to use a soft cloth or something similar as to not scratch your lens or casing. Let the lens push the camera up and down a few times and sometimes the little resistance provided by the camera is enough to get things going again.

Try hitting your camera near the lens on the body with the soft tissue on the palm of your hand.

Other than that , I would take the camera to a repair center for a evaluation to see if it would cost more to repair than to replace the camera.

If it is still under warranty I would suggest you take it in before trying any of these steps and remove any off-brand batteries or accessories as some stores are really fussy about warranty repairs on camera's with non-brand accessories.

Hope the advise is useful. please do not hesitate to let me know if you need any further assistance.

If the camera has recently been dropped you may have lens damage that's preventing it from powering up. If it hasn't been dropped your problem may be due to weak/worn out batteries or corrosion on the battery contacts inside the camera - which can prevent the full power of the batteries from flowing into the camera. Try this free fix before you do anything else: remove the batteries and wipe the camera contacts firmly with a dry cloth (heavy corrosion may require cleaning with a wire brush, steel wool, or sandpaper). Remove any residue that may have fallen into the battery compartment during cleaning, then clean the battery contacts, place the batteries back in the camera and give them a full charge (assuming that you're using rechargeable batteries). This cleaning clears the problem about 80% of the time. If it doesn't work for you, it may be time to replace the batteries,or the camera may have a problem that requires professional repair.

Hi, This might be a case of the defective batteries (though brand new). Most if not all rechargeable batteries including Li-Ion batteries have only so much shelf life. The unit might be new but have been with the dealer for sometime. Probably your best bet would be to bring it back to the dealer and ask for a replacement camera or at least the batteries. Show him the fully charged indicator and how quick it will be gone when you try to take a pic. Of course, you would need your warranty card, proof of purchase and any other documents normally asked for complaints like this, Hope this give you an idea. Good luck and kind regards.

Unfortunately, if the batteries have corroded then the chances are extremely high that the contacts (and possibly more of the camera's internal electronics) have also been affected by corrosion. It may be possible to clean the contacts yourself, but if there is corrosion internally then the camera is probably not economically repairable.

THAT MAY BE COINCIDENCE. I HAD MINE QUITTING WHILE I WAS GETTING INTO POSITION TO SHOOT A PICTURE. I DIDN'T BOTHER WITH REPAIR AND BOUGHT AN OLYMPUS VR-320. MUCH SIMPLER AND QUICKER TO SHOOT.

If you can't find any decent Sony store, please try an universal charger. Today you can find its of different universal chargers, costing less then any brand own charger. And you can put any rechargeable battery on it. Please look for a complete automatic one, if you don't have enough tech skills. The great thing about my charger is, when traveling I only need one charger for all the (different) camera's in the family.

Probably the battery is not charging. If it is older than 5 years, the battery could be bad. See if you can have it checked or replaced.

Sorry, not even Polaroid seems to have that manual online, only the quick start guide. Try requesting the manual at http://www.polaroidcamerasupport.com/products/IS085/IS085.html

you dont say what size or type of card you have there? did you previously use the card elsewhere? format the card on a PC using SDFORMATTER (google it) hope that sorts.
