Make sure you have fully charged batteries in the Camera,<br />2. Hold the camera with lens pointing down. Make sure its on a soft surface, incase the Camera Slips from your hand.<br />3. Power on the Camera with Lens pointing down and as you power on, slowly Tap on the side of the Camera. This could open the lens. Some times, it will open half way and wait. Repeat this steps few more time and you should see the lens open out fully. Now you can power off and try again.<br /><br />Hope this helps.

Did all the steps 1-7. None worked. Went back to using compressed air, but this time I used my fingernail, exerting pressure in the crack around lense to open the gaps more as I used the compressed air and worked around the lense on all sides. Voila! It worked!

Did you actually replace the CCD sensor (...Michael,<br />Did you actually replace the CCD sensor (inside the lens, and a very difficult task usually) or do you actually mean the LCD screen (just inside the back cover, and usually very easy to get at and replace)?<br /><br />Anyways you say the camera is still taking pictures. Have you downloaded them? Do they look OK? If so, I'm guessing that your problem is the backlight illuminator to the LCD screen. The LCD screen itself needs a light behind it so that you can see what's on it. If this light does not come on, the screen will be dark. Usually the problem is just a bad power connection to the light, and normally can be corrected by finding its power plug and reseating it. I'm not entirely familiar with your model camera, so you'll have to do some research on this yourself.<br /><br />CRCamera Repairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01260622716502547900noreply@blogger.com
