Worked like a charm.  After further investigation, I learned that my wife dipped the camera in cake frosting.

Hello! I had the same frustrating problem and was just about to send my camera to Sony for a whopping $180 base repair fee. Anyway this is what worked for me. I think there was something causing the camera lens to stick a bit so I used a flat sharp knife to dislodge it. please DO NOT poke it. Just run the knife blade gently under the rim following the circle. Then turn th camera back on. I hope it works for you!

Defective, optical lens assy, most probably the lens cover mechanism, but its integrated in the entire lens assy. When power on, observe the lens cover if will retract or open, if not, then thats it.

When turned on just shows black screen. Used to be able to pwer off and back on and would work. Lens issue? Can view pics on memory card just can't take pics anymore.
A stuck shutter is another common failure mode for digital cameras. The symptoms of a stuck or "sticky" shutter are very similar to CCD image sensor failure. The camera may take black pictures (for shutter stuck closed), or the pictures may be very bright and overexposed, sometimes with lines, especially when taken outdoors (for shutter stuck open). To confirm a stuck shutter, put the camera in any mode other than "Auto", and turn the flash OFF (you don't want to blind yourself for the next step). Next look down the lens and take a picture. You should see a tiny flicker in the center of the lens as the shutter opens and closes. If no movement is seen, then you likely have a stuck shutter. If so, please see this link for further info and a simple fix that may help.

DSC-W150 SteadyShot says turn power on & off & lens pops in/out
I had the same problem with my Sony DSC-W150 camera. It turned out to have an easy fix. At the same time, press the power button and depress the shutter button halfway (the one you snap to take pics) as if you were trying to engage the autofocus without pressing the button down entirely. The lens will attempt to autofucus, which in my case was enough extra power to dislodge whatever debris/sand had clogged the lens. Hope this works for you!

Turn camera off and on again -- fried in outlet

Hi,


Error: TURN THE POWER OFF AND ON AGAIN is displayed on the LCD screen when the Lens Mechanism is stuck or when affected by any malfunction. If turning the power on and off again does not resolve the error message, try doing a power reset and Initialize option.

Performing a manual power reset

Turn off the camera.

Remove the battery pack.

Press and hold the power button for 30 seconds.

Allow the camera to remain without power for 60 seconds.

Reinsert the battery pack.

Turn on the camera.

To reset the Camera back to factory default, select the INITIALIZE Option from the Main Settings 1 Menu of the Camera to OK. This will set the user defined settings back to factory default. The images and videos will not get deleted.


If the issue persists, service may be required.


Thanks for contacting FixYa.

Buy a card reader and use it to download to your computer. Then, insert the card back in the camera, go into the menu and scroll to "format"...follow the on-screen instructions.

I had same problem. I just got the camera working again. Not sure how it exactly happened but while I had it on and it was zooming in and out, I changed the mode and tried to take a pic. It would ask me to turn off and on again which I would do quickly and change the mode to something else like "portrait" or "landscape", etc. and try to take a pic. After a few times it stopped and focused on something. So not very scientific but doing that must have kicked it in the head or something.

Camera Temperature
mine is an everio gz-mg37u and i get that same bulls*** on the screen at every power up. First I tried waiting a while then switching all the switches between camera and video mode, record and watch mode, etc. and one time it worked and the message went away. Haven't been able to do that since.

Now what I do is turn it on, wrap it in a blanket, leave it about 10 minutes, then turn the power off and on again. Works fine for me, and if I turn it off and then turn it back on within a few minutes before it cools down, it works fine. There has to be a messed up sensor in this thing that I can desolder somewhere......

Replaced the CCD imager chip in a Sony DSCT33 camera, but still get nothing. I bought the replacement from an eBay seller. Is there any way to check the replacement chip to see if it's bad too? I've reconnected it several times to see if that may have been the problem. When contacted, the seller said they were out of stock and were quick to refund my money...which leads me to believe the parts was questionable from the beginning.

My cybershot DSC T33 has a black screen when switched on. It will take photos but the pictures come out black. I can view previous pictures no problem. Having looked at other postings I think this is due to failure of ccd imager chip in the camera. Can you give me the part number please and advise where I will get it?
