I have this camera and i had the problem of it saying turn off power then back on .. and the zoomj went slightly twisting every second . but about 30 seconds ago i just managed to fix it ... you grab the lens and push it back into the camera it worked for me well :D

Remove the battery, press and hold the power button, or turn the power switch to ON position(depends on the option available in your Camera) for more than 30 Seconds and then reinsert the battery to resolve the issue.

That happened to my fairly new Whirlpool double oven. But I remembeedr the power in the neighborhood had flickered earlier in the day. So I went to the circuit breaker and shutoff power to the oven for about 30 seconds and turned back on. Everything normal now. I just assumed the slight flicker in the power affected to programming.

more than buying a rteplacement camera. Even a second hand one would be cheaper than repair

I have a Kodak 1275. Green light would go on the off and lens was stuck open. Now for solution that worked for me. Get a can of compressed air, like what you use for computer keyboards. Blow the compressed air all around your stuck open lens, not to fast and switch directions of where you blow air around stuck opened lens. Make sure batteries are fresh and fully charged. Tap your camera against the palm of your hand twice, not to hard or you may damage instead of jarring lens lose. Next lay your camera on a table lens facing up, push power button on so camera will try to auto focus and lens should reseat itself and lens should move freely. It doesn`t have to look dirty or dusty, little tiny particles can cause the lens to get stuck and shut off fast because it is a safety feature. If this does not work try plugging your camera into computer so the lcd screen does not try to go on , thus giving even more power to get your lens moving . Do not try to force it closed by pushing or twisting with your hand or you may cause damage that will cost as much as the camera to fix.

Does the camera was dropped done ? It sound like a zooming mechanism's issue (lens would not retract or extended) Try to press the power button on and hold it down while extending and twisting the telescopic zoom lens. It might fix your problem. In any case it could not make it worse Good luck!
