Bummer..camera was dropped on tile floor and now whenever camera is turned on, a grinding sound begins and the camera starts shaking. I am unable to take clear pictures because of the camera shaking. Can this be fixed?
Joy,
thank you for using fixya.
the zoom and focus assembly is at fault, the grinding noise and shacking is a result of s de-railed plastic gear.
if the camera is still under warranty have it serviced, take note that if the gear is broken and not de-railed, mounts may be broken also.
here is an example of the assembly.
hope this helps.
regards,
voodoo
