Issues with sony dsc-w50 camera

When I select 'right' or 'down' on the macro button the camera powers off. I am also getting 'access' when i turn the camera on. Is this a loose connection? The power on the battery also runs flat now even when the camera is shut off? Does anyone have any ideas on what i can do?

Hi,

To 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.

Initialize can only be done if you're able to access the menu of the Camera. To reset the Camera back to factory default, select the INITIALIZE Option from the SET UP1 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.

I have a Sony DSC-W50 Cybershot camera that won't take pictures or videos anymore. It powers up fine and the screen works, but when I hold down the shutter button all the way, it focuses and nothing more.
