How do I get spots that are inside my camera lens out?

"how do i get the lens to my camera lens to go inward?"?

  • i have got a opitmus 5.0 ditigal camera, the problem is it was accidently dropped while it was on, after it fell i test it out and erase a video clip from it. after that i turn it off normally the lens itself would go inward, it doesnt do it now,now , i tried removing the batterys and the memory card and reinstert them nothing work, and i tried every double A battery in the house that i could find,and So far none of them has work. i'm also wondering if the batteries were completely drained the camera itself doesnt work. i never own a digital camera before i'm hoping that theres some camera geneis out there in cyberspace who can give me some adviced. thanks sandy lovejoy

  • Answer:

    The gears that pull the lens back into the camera body are small and delicate and were probably broken in the fall. It's time to decide if it's worth getting a repair (ask for a ROUGH estimate first) or if you should just get a new camera. This kind of damage is generally not covered under a manufacturer's warranty. If you bought the camera with a charge card, maybe they include damage protection in the purchase, though. Some do.

hmmm...that happened with my camera as well. what you need to do is if it is still under warranty send it back for repairs. if it is not, then take it to a camera shop and they might be able to fix it.

You probably disaligned the track that the lens rides on. Any pressure on the lens itself has drastic consquences. Your warrianty if you had one, will not cover this because it is fault of the user, being you the user. You either have to pay to get it fixed or buy a new camera.
