The camera turned on accidentally while in its case, and the lens tried unsuccessfully to extend. Now the camera will tuirn on and off and take pictures, but the lens will not zoom.
(EX-S100) You need a new lens assembly. I know this from experiece because I have the same camera and it tried to extend while in its case as well. I found that there are plastic gears that extend this lens assembly and that they are basically destroyed when the lens assembly is not allowed to extend on power-up. I have searched for a replacement part with little success. I found one repair shop that would ship me the part for more than the original cost of the camera. Good Luck!
