Hi,
with the indulgence of the others....
An alternate cleaning method is to use a can of compressed air to blow away dust and foreign matters. Of course, the opposite also holds true, the dust and foreign matters maybe forced more into the internals of the camera.
Another consideration is the cost of repair that is if you have to seek the services of a qualified professional. Should the cost and time element be no longer economically reasonable, you may have to consider purchase of a replacement.
Full charge first the your camera battery. Possible that the battery power can't supply enough power to give the motor of your cam to operate...
Post back again.. Let us know what happen..
Thanks
Hi,
try this out it worked for most of them who had a similar problem like urs:
Gently tap it twice at the end of the camera to ur plam and it will work again.
just tap it very lightly against the bottom of the camera holding it upright.
Goodluck,

Well im sorry then the only solution is to get it repaired.
To protect your digital camera from water, humidity and dust - add a roll of cardboard around the lens, then slide the camera body inside a condom (non-lubricated), also slip a packet of silica-gel to absorb moisture and tie the knot.
Best of all, you can still shoot pictures or video while it's inside the pouch though the quality may not be perfect. Underwater photography anyone ? More details at Instructables.
A similar method can be used to protect mobile phones while you're inside the swimming pool.

There must be some dust or sand? in there.
These things are very painfull and difficult to take and put back together.
I would recommend takeing it to a camera shop or a local professional to be cleaned / repaired.
I took mine apart back in the day and never managed to get it back together what a pain it was its so thight in there.
As you surmise, it is probably grit in either the motor gears or in the zoom housing. Check your manual for instructions on cleaning.

the battery is fully charged and still stops halfway
This didn't help. :(
oh great. my philosophy is to read directions only as a last resort so i didn't read the manual. any suggestions for a camera than can survive in a sandy dusty place?
