The lens cover has not come across and when the camera is switched on a whirring sound is heard. This goes on for while then the camera turns itself off. The screen displays "Access" at this point. I've tried to get the lens cover to flick across by probing around the aperture but it is not fixed.

Same issue. Camara is pretty new. When i turn it on it says "access" and it will not allow me to take pictures. routinely asks for me to turn it off and on again.

We have had that same issue with our S600, we sent it in to get fixed, and it worked fine for about 5 months. It is now doing the " Turn the camera off and then on again" thing. We have tried new batteries and the Sony assistance line, neither of which were of any help.

This indicades the lens motor/gearing is damaged or worn. Nothing for you to do except contact Sony Chances are when you see the price of a 'repair' you will opt for a new camera.

Canon SD770 IS's lens won't close. I get error message: Lens error, restart camera. Restarting doesn't work. Any advice? Strange that it won't even take photos or playback while the lens is stuck!

Welcome to FixYa

Camera detected this error while moving the lens and cut the power automatically. This error message may appear if you press on the lens while its moving. Make sure that when your going to turn on the camera, your hand or fingers will not block the lens to retrack. Turning on the camera in a dusty or sandy environnment is also one reason for this message to be displayed.
Try to remove the battery and re-insert it, then turn on the camera again. If the message still persist, take the camera to a service center because there may be a problem with the lens.

Please let me know if you have any questions and if this solution was helpful.

Thank you for using FixYa

Lens jams can happen without dropping the camera. The lens motor is bad, or a grain of sand has got stuck in one of the lens cogs. Either way will need lens repair/replacement.

Error-C1

Dirt /dust in the lens and lens gear box ( this drives zooming only ) preventing optimum functioning. Lens cannot properly come on line ( shutter and diaphragh mechanism then do not come on line ) and the camera switches off. Solution : is ether replace lens unit or dismantle lens to clean out ( from gear box and the helicoil of the lens ).
