Cameras - Nikon - COOLPIX - Coolpix S210 Digital Camera
Thanks for using FixYa. It seems that the lens of the Nikon Coolpix S210 Digital Camera might have been stuck or due to some other issues the it is stuck on one picture. Please follow these steps to resolve the issue---
With the camera closed and off point it straight up (lens towards the ceiling) and hit the power button while holding down the shutter release. When the camera opened, it immediately tried to focus for the picture it was told to take, and apparently it forced the lens to move.
You can also try blowing compressed air around the lens cover to clean it. Now slide a thin strip of paper between the lens cover shutters and the outer support ring and move it around 360 degrees. This will clear the debris stuck there.
With the lens barrel extended and pointed downward, tap the lens barrel with a pencil while you extend and retract the lens by powering the camera on and off. Repeat these steps several times to resolve the issue.
Please do accept the solution if the issue is resolved or else revert for further assistance.
