Coolpix S210 Lens Error

I recently borrowed my sons Coolpix S210 camera and it worked great. Took great pictures while we were on vacation in North Carolina. I turned it on for another photo and the screen showed the picture saved it but then it said "Lens Error !" I turned it off ond tried again same scenario. I have searched the web and found that this is a common problem with camera. Is there a way to fix it or does Nikon have a warranty against this problem? Any info would be appreciated.

I think I answered this one earlier. Is the lens stuck? If so, help it out with a little screw driver. Worked for me!

The problem: camera says lens error /coolpix S210

Try gently jiggling the lens. Blow compressed air around the barrel. If that doesn't help, the camera will need service.

Hi!
It sounds like the lens focus is stuck. If you don't have experience in camera repairs, you should give it for a repair to your local Nikon service center or other camera service center.

S210 Lens Error

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 or replaced.

Coolpix S210 Lens Error

Mine did this. I assume the lens won't pop up as it normally did?

To fix mine, I wedged a small screwdriver into the lens and then turned it on, gently nudging the lens out. It worked great and I haven't had the issue again yet.

Just a little help is all it likely needs to pop that lens out.
