Question about Olympus FE-230 Digital Camera

2 Answers

Olympus Problem I just got my FE-230 a few days ago. I used it a few time while I was on vacation but then I tried turning it on again and the red light flashed and then the lens went back in. It did this about 4 times in a row. I charged the battery and it still did the same thing. Please help!!

    I have had the camera for at least 6 months, and it worked fabulously, then all of a sudden -I went to turn it on and the optical zoom lens just keeps popping in and out and will not take a picture, then shuts off.



    I am at a loss, I really love this camera, and I am overseas not able to take it back or mail it to the place where I purchased it in Sugarland, Tx.

    Mine does the exact same thing. I had it for about three and a half months and it worked GREAT. Then just a few days ago it started this up. I turn it on, the lens goes in and out about four times, and then it just shuts off. Very unfortunate...

If you mean that it is a new camera - then returnit to the seller for replacement as it seems to be an internal fault.

I have a SONY KF-WE50 rear projection tv, a few weeks ago it started to turn the pic and sound off while the green light was flashing around 30 times. After the light finished flashing both the picture and...
the green is the reboot process and is normal.
the red light is an error code indicator.
count the blinks of the red light...it cant be 30 times (I think)
it will blink a sequence, pause, then do it again for a total of three times.
count carefully, it gives you three chances to catch the number it is blinking.

Problem with my Olympus FE-230
When I turn my camera on, the lens goes in and out a few times. Once it's finally on and I look at the screen, everything is blurry. When I take the picture, it's blurry too. If I try to use the zoom to adjust, the lens starts going in and out all crazy and won't adjust right.

Same problem
I had the same problem. I hit it a long time ago when it did it for the first time. It has been a year since then and it is doing it again. I tried the book solution again and it will not work. I tried holding the lens, no luck, and I tried applying pressure when the lens went back in, again, no luck. Honestly, I don't think I will buy another Olympus fe series camera again. The solutions provided do help the first few times your camera does it, but you might want to start checking the market for a new camera.

Olympus battery charger flashes red when battery is inserted.
@gminvite1
"Another way I found was when this happens, to push the battery to the point the light will turn on, when it starts flashing slide it off then back on. Do this a few times so it charges a little, then you should be fine to leave it on."

I tried to do this with my LI-10C Olympus charger and it worked..The blinking red light turns to solid red..Thanks for the info...Now I won't be bothering to buy a new batt.or have my charger checked..

LG LCD TV Standby Light Flashing Red Continuously
I have had this same problem twice in the past 3 months. So far both times I've been able to get it back after a week or two. I'm not sure what works, but unplugging and detaching the antenna and cable and waiting a few days seems to be the key. In both instances, I unplugged it for a few days then plugged it in for a few days and repeated the processes until I eventually got the steady red led. Both times prior to the red led the led would flash red then green and make a clickiing noise for several hours before I was able to get it working again.
