Sony Cybershot T1

Is it model with automatic cover of lens, like the DSC-T3 has? Problem is probably with lens cover. Try to move it (or help while it is trying to open/close) by your finger. It does sometimes if it is dirty (inside). I gues because you did not write the model name and number and on the picture is DSC-T1, but it has only 5.Mpix. If you have model with telescopic lens it is probably damaged gears of lens.

I have lost my battery cover for my Sony Cybershot DSC-T10. IF your camera is water damaged and you want to sell it. Let me know, I could use the battery cover that slides and "clicks" into place.
