Hi all,

I've just joined this forum in the hop that someone can help me with a problem with my Optio M20.

I've only had it two years and it doesn't get a great deal of use which is why I was surprised to find that all of a sudden it doesn't work!

When the unit is turned on, it seems to do all the right things in that the LCD turns on, the lens pops out, except that once the lens pops out, there is a small buzzing sound. The lens retreats, pops out again, then the little buzz and the lens goes back and the camera switches off. I can't take any photos!!

Has anyone any ideas about what this problem could be? Is it terminal or can it be fixed?

Any help would be appreciated.

Regards,

Chris.
