How do you fix a stuck camera lens?

Answer 1

You bring it to a professional for maintenance. Especially if you are a professional, why would you want to take the chance of ruining the camera or the lens?

depending on what is meant by "inside lens." If you are talking about an interior element it definitely goes to the maker or other pro. if you mean the rear element of the lens then a blower and a lens cloth can serve

Answer 2

To clean the lens of a digital camera, firstly avoid touching it with your fingers.

Carefully blow off any grit and loose dust particles, then lightly wipe the lens with a soft, dry cloth or special lens cleaning paper. If necessary, use a tiny amount of lens cleaning fluid, but only put the fluid on the lens cleaning paper, not straight onto the lens itself. You can also use a microfibre cleaning cloth, or other soft cotton. Avoid using materials like paper towels, napkins or facial tissues.

Answer 3

The long answer depends on what's wrong with the lens, but the short answer is easier. If you are not a trained technician with the proper tools, you don't. An exception is "lens errors". 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. Or the battery ran down with the lens extended ... There are several things that you can do to try to correct it. These home fixes seem to work for less than 50% of the lens errors. If the camera is out of warranty, and if professional repair will cost more than the value of the camera, then they're worth a try.

Answer 4

you take a cloth with a little bit of water then dry it =) I use eye glass cleaner. You can get it in drug stores. It's not that expensive. If you don't want to do that then use a little Dawn dish soap in a small bowl of water and use a clean cloth and dip it in this solution (squeeze out the excess water) then rub on the lens of the camera and then wipe dry immediately with a clean and very soft cloth. I also use this method to clean my scanner and monitor of my computer as well as the TV. Works great on windows in the house and also windshields of cars and trucks.

Answer 5

You can try twisting the camera lens clockwise gently and it will go down. Do not push it down or else you will break it. Then try turning it on. It might work.
