I have the Sony Cybershot model as well and the button popped off. One slight problem, I live in Russia now and getting parts to repair it properly is virtually impossible. I have both the button and the spring. Any suggestions?

Try visiting ifixit. On www.ifixit.com. This site has lots of guides, videos and other things that can help you when you want to repair your equipment.
You even can buy repair tools and spare parts.

They did not do your camera, but some Sony camera's that looks a bit like yours.

Hi,
There are few Sony Cybershot models that vibrate in camera mode, lens mechanism is found defective for that problem. Local camera repair shop will look into lens mechanism and replace wither defective part or complete lens assembly (it depends on model number of camera) to solve the problem.
Thanks.

Hi Jim,
Have you tried resetting all settings on the camera? On a Sony camera, it is called "initialize". The initialize setting is found by going to the menu, and tabbing down until you find an option called either "reset settings" or "initialize settings" and then confirm it.
Many times that will fix the issue, in case something has either been enabled/disabled on accident, or the software is sticking (which happens from time to time)

Hi,
Sorry to say that although your camera is in warranty but it does not cover under warranty according to the terms and condition, you just have to visit nearest sony service center to get estimate for complete lens assembly, it must be replaced by new one. You didn't mention model number here that i can tell you the cost and part number of lens assy.
thanks for using fixya.

I would recommend to take back to the shop you bought it from or you can buy a new because it will need hands on repair i can do it for free just email me at

Hi!
This is a well known problem with H2 and H5 - the buttons brake. Sorry, they are not fixable, only replacable. You should contact your local Sony service center and ask them if it can be repaired for free or for a half price at least, as it's a factory problem and they know it.
I work in a Sony service center.

Hope this helps!

Hi!
This is a well known problem with H2 and H5. You should ask Sony if they could repair it for at least half price, as it's a factory problem. If not, I can offer you the button or change it for you for a very good price. My e-mail is [email protected]

Hope this helps!

If you can do the repair yourself, you can buy either the complete shutter button assembly for about $40, or there is a repair kit available where you rebuild the broken button.

There is only ONE PLACE to buy the repair kit with instructions: DARNTOOTHYSAM com. Do a Google search for 'digital camera parts' and Darntoothysam is the first listing shown. Feel free to look elsewhere but you won't find the $20 repair kit anywhere else and on the Darntoothysam blog page there are instructions to tell you how to install it yourself.

If you don't want to try and install it, there is a repair package on Darntoothysam for only $50 that includes the part and installation plus return shipping of the camera to you!

Hope this helps.
