Lens pops in and out

SOURCE: the lens does not stop popping in and out plus it says to turn off and on again

hi there
turn camera on, gently take hold of the end of the lense and pull toward you twisting it a few times, be gentle dont make it pop, you may howeveer hear it click. then turn off and on again the problem should be solved.

SOURCE: Lens Error. Restart Camera. Camera gives this error message and then shuts off. I can't access photos or function buttons. What can I do?

Press the "MENU" button and navigate to the reset command and reset the camera. That may get the camera to function properly.

SOURCE: turn the camera on, len opens up, camera make beeps

there is a problem with the lense motor. consult a good camera mechanic

Testimonial: "I will check have this checked out"

SOURCE: turn on camera,lens pops out,goes in/out focus reads lens error

If the camera has recently been dropped you may have lens damage that is 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 wipe both ends of the batteries and place them back in the camera and give them a full charge (assuming that you are using rechargeable batteries). This cleaning clears the problem about 90% of the time. If it doesn't work for you, your batteries may need to be replaced or the camera may have a problem that requires professional repair.
