Nikon Coolpix 8700 Lens Error

AHH!! Someone please help me!! I left my camera on, and then turned it on and off to take a picture really quick. It made this noise and the lens froze up. Then i turned it off and on and the lens went inside the camera. I am so mad right now and stressed. I don't know what to do. I can't get it repaired, because I have no money to.

Hello

Unfortunately a "lens error" message is not something that you will be able to fix. This error indicates a system failure and requires the camera to be sent in for servicing and repair.

You may find it more cost effective to purchase a new camera as opposed to the repair price on your current camera.

I am not able to find, How to turn of the Flash of Nikon Coolpix 8700. When i need to take pictures without flash, but when i click, it automaticaly turns on the flash, and i tried to figured it out how to...

ok. there is a button on the side of the lens. it has an eyeball and a bolt of lightning, press that button and look in the top right corner of the screen. keep on pressing this button until you see; a lightning bolt with a circle with a line threw it. then "click". if that doesn't work switch your camera to manual and try this again.

Hi - I found this info on the Nikon Australia website:

"System Error" or "Lens Error" message in LCD monitor

Question My COOLPIX camera displays a "System Error" or "Lens Error" message. What should I do?

Answer Having a "System Error" or "Lens Error" message displayed on the camera's LCD monitor would generally indicate that your camera needs servicing. A System Error is a general error which can be caused by many things: lens problem, CF Card problem, general camera failure, etc. To troubleshoot, please try the following:

Use the memory card that originally came with your camera (or a Nikon approved card).
Remove and replace the battery.

On the other hand, a Lens Error generally means that an error has occured during the lens operation. To troubleshoot, please try the following:

Turn off the camera.
Remove and replace the battery.
Turn on the camera.

If the above tips do not help, your camera must be sent to our Nikon Authorised Service Centres, there are no user serviceable parts in our Nikon COOLPIX cameras. We apologize for any inconvenience caused and we will do everything to repair your Nikon camera as quickly as possible. Click Here for our Nikon Authorised Service Centres details.

Sort of like a Windows Restart to reset the memory.

Hope this helps.

Seems you may just have to remove and replace the battery - sort of like a Windows Restart to fix a computer problem! - this would reset your camera's memory.

Hope this helps.

Hellp?!

How old is your camera? Is it still under warranty?

From everything i have read, the "Lense Error" is a common defect in these cameras.
Hopefully you will be able to return it and have it repaired for free for you.

Sorry i couldn't be more of a help.
Good Luck.

Nikon 8700

I had a Lens ERR a year ago and after a while it started working again on it's own... that error means that something (dust particle, etc) is stuck in the lens; you can try to clean it with a brush or blower; or take it to a repair shop... it's a pretty simple thing to resolve.
