Try the most basic step first. Please check if the battery is fully charged. If not it is not providing enough juice to the motor that turns the zoom lens. Please charge it fully first and give it a try.
If not, try re-setting the camera. you can find it in the menus.
if not the worst case scenario, the zoom motor is burnt, please take it to the service center for necessary repairs
Camera is currently equipped with a Leica 12X zoom lens. I would like to be able to take pcs. from a greater distance than this lens permits. Can you recommend a lens that I can attache to the Panasonic DMC-F27 that will enable me to do so? Thank you!!
You don't. The DMC-LS6 uses standard AA batteries, either disposables or rechargeables. If you use rechargeable batteries then you must charge them outside the camera using a separate charger. AA rechargeables and chargers should be available at just about any department, electronics, or office-supply store.
Hello Try removing the battery and the memory card for 1 minute then return them back. Make sure the battery is inserted properly. If that didn't work, try turning it on without the memory card.
Did you get any error message when you try to turn on your camera?
This could be a problem with the format of the memory card , or the memory card is not formatted as per the requirements of your camera.
I would give you a way out to try and see if it works , as I have been through this problem myself too.
Using a card reader device , connect your memory card to your computer and make sure it gets detected in your computer.
In case you are using windows xp , vista or windows 7 , you will find the removable drive relevant to your memory card being detected.
Now all you have to do is try and format the card in a mode that is different than the current one.
For e.g if your memory card has been formatted by NTFS file system , then try changing the format to the FAT32 file system.
and if it's FAT32 already , try formatting the card with the NTFS system and then try and insert the card in your camera after it has been formatted successfully.
The above solution has helped me , hope it helps you as well..:)
Only lightly toasted. The drop likely damaged the lens tube (housing) or jarred the zoom mechanism off of its track. There is no safe DIY fix for either condition, but the camera can be repaired by the manufacturer or at a local camera shop. Make sure to get an estimate first -- you may need to decide if the camera is worth the cost of the repair.
The innards of modern DSLRs are precise and fragile. You need to contact a reputable repair shop ASAP. In addition to fixing your camera, they will clean the interior properly, eliminating dust particles that find their way to the CCD. The cleaning is something you should have done from time to time anyway, so just bite the bullet and take it in!
I own one. Assuming that the camera is working normally, then I know two settings that will cause the zoom to be fixed. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Suggestion No. 1:
If the zoom is fixed at the wide end:
1. Turn the mode dial to "P". Now turn on the camera. 2. Press "MENU SET". 3. Press the up arrow button. 4. Now, a menu item named "CONVERSION" should be highlighted. Press the right arrow button. 5. A sub-menu screen should now pop up, select and set "OFF".
If none of the above solve the problem, then the lens might have been knocked slightly out of position.
~If the camera has been dropped. ~If the camera has been thumped or banged. ~If while zooming, the lens was obstructed. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The zoom motor also could have died, it costs about $50.00 U.S. at Panasonic.com. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- My best advice would be to contact panasonic customer service.
