If you don't have a card reader in your computer(s), they are available inexpensively, for example: amazon.com/Mini-Memory-Card-Reader-Writer/dp/B000FNDWLQ/… –coneslayer May 6 '11 at 13:54 2 I got this issue with my camera too, when my son dropped it in the sand. The lens mechanism retraction is very fragile. One grain of sand is enough to break the camera. In our case, we got the camera for less than a week, so we returned the camera for an exchange. –decasteljau May 6 '11 at 14:01 add a comment| 9 Answers 9 active oldest votes up vote 3 down vote accepted Lens errors are fairly common. Usually it's sand or grit interfering with the lens extension mechanism. Or the camera's been dropped with the lens extended. Or the camera has been powered on, but the lens had been blocked preventing its extension. I have written a blog post about some things that you can do to tr

in any way. Yesterday it was working fine and I put back in its case when I was finished. This morning I was going to take a photo of a hawk in my front http://photo.stackexchange.com/questions/11755/what-should-i-do-about-canon-powershot-lens-error-restart-camera yard and when I turned it on, the lens made a clicking sound when it extended. I tried to zoom and it made the clicking sound again. Then the screen went dark and I got the "lens error, restart camera" error message. It turned itself off with the lens still extended. I have tried to restart several time and the error message just comes on and it turns https://www.dpreview.com/forums/post/19565455 itself back off again. I tried taking the battery out for a while but same result.Best Buy only allows you to return a camera within 14 days and this has been 18. I am going to try anyway but do not have much hope. I went to the Canon website and found absolutely no information about this error message or any help other than how to send it in for service. We are about to leave on a trip, which is why I bought this new camera in the first place, and do not want to wait 3 weeks for repair. Has anyone else had this problem and figured out how to fix it themself? Thanks.

After seven months of use, my S100 got hit by the problem. Believe me, I treat my cameras with tender loving care. I was simply taking a few photos, shut the camera off then on again about five minutes later. Oh boy: lens error message on the LCD, lens stuck open and the camera wouldn't restart. My S100 was totally unusable. So I sent off the camera to a Canon repair facility. I had to pay the shipping costs, which set me back about $18.00. Fortunately, I have several other cameras to use in the interim. But I feel for owners who have the S100 as their only camera. Imagine the camera going kaput during a once-in-a-lifetime trip?! How maddening! How disconcerting! Canon S100 product advisory At least Canon announced a product advisory for the S100 and will fix affected cameras for free. The first and second digits of affected cameras have serial numbers ranging from”29″ through”41.” For example: “29xxxxxxxxxx”, “30xxxxxxxxxx”, ”41xxxxxxxxxx.” Canon says the lens may become disconnected in certain environmental conditions such as high temperature and/or humidity. I live in Florida and have used dozens of cameras in a hot and humid environment including my Canon SD700, SD890, S90 and XSi, all of which I still use. I never had a problem with any of them! Under normal use, we have every expectation that the S100 should work in this type of environment. But, as many of us learned the hard way, it doesn't because of a manufacturing debacle. The repair process Having to send in a camera for repair is a pain, however the pain is somewhat lessened because the actual process is relatively easy. I went to the Canon site and filled out the information online. An acknowledgment was sent to me including were I could access and print out the information including mailing instructions, mailing label and packing slip. Canon recommends insuring the camera and mailing it with a tracking
