I have a Nikon Coolpix camera, But idropped it ): it says there is a lens error- is there any way i can fix it

Answer 1

The Coolpix cameras are notoriously fragile, especially in the lens area. If the lens is still open, take a look in the open front and see if that little rectangular clear lens screen (just behind the automatic lens cover) is ********. If it is, there's little hope. If its not bent sideways, you can try some of the following fixes that may or may not work. I know it says that these fixes are for Canon, but they sometimes work on other cameras too. Also only try these if your camera is out of warranty:

Answer 2

I don't know, DORY. Most digital cameras, especially Casio, Kodak, and others, and some Canon have fragile lenses as well.

Your Nikon camera is busted. Sorry to say it. The problem is internal, and cannot be fixed unless you are a professional. You'll have to take it to a repair place, but the repair will probably be more than the camera itself. Buy a new one.

Best case scenario, you could always take it back to the store you bought it from, and say it just stopped working. That is, if you have the receipt. They should give you a replacement, as long as you don't say you dropped it. They wont cover it if it was your fault.

Hope this helped.

Answer 3

Gravity and water are the leading killers of digital cameras. Abuse is not covered by any warranty so repairs will be at your expense.

Unless you have no self-respect or sense of right and wrong, do not take your camera back to the store and lie about what happened. In most cases the service center will determine it was dropped and you'll be found out as a liar. Take responsibility and either pay for the repairs or buy a new camera. Use a wrist strap or neck strap to keep the new one safe.

Answer 4

It sounds like you have dislodged part of the inner lens. Take it to the camera shop you cant fix it on your own.

Answer 5

I would take it to the place you bought it. This is something that you "should not try at home". This sounds internal. Your camera should have a warranty. Becareful with your camera. It really bites when you have one and then it breaks.
