Sony Cyber-shot DSC-H200: Lens is stuck and camera won't turn on properly?

Sat, 13 Apr 2024 01:33:29 -0700

Basically i was using my camera as usual when the picture went extremely blurry. I turned it off to turn it back on again but the lens stayed out, which it has never done before. It now won't turn on properly, it just shows the 'Cyber-Shot' start screen and the lens is still extended. Really need this fixing as my father not long passed away and this was the last birthday present he ever got me and i also make youtube videos, there are many reasons this camera is important to me and i'd really appreciate any help!

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W55: How to transfer a picture from camera memory onto the SD card?

Sun, 30 Nov 2025 09:31:14 -0700

I took a picture with my camera - not realizing that I didn't have my SD card in. I do not have the cord to transfer photos onto the computer. Is there any way I can put the picture from the camera memory onto the SD card? Is there a transfer option for this on the camera? Worried because now the picture is just "stuck" on my camera :( Help.

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W230: Camera will not retain date/time

Thu, 31 Dec 2020 00:33:53 -0700

When I power up my Sony W230 it gives me the option to set the clock and date or bypass it altogether. I set the date and time. I can then take photos. If I power it off and then on again, I get the same screen for setting the clock and date from. I have changed battery to freshly charged one... Reset to original settings... Formatted card... Switched out cards... Removed battery overnight... Nothing works. My camera continuously reverts back to Jan 1, 2009 12AM. If I set the clock and then take pics, the date and time is already back to Jan 1, 2009. I am assuming this camera has an internal battery which has died. Please help. Thanks

Sony α6000: Sony A6000 is not working properly all of a sudden

Tue, 20 Feb 2024 17:17:45 -0700

I have an A6000 camera that suddenly is acting very strange. It will not allow me to make any adjustments in Apeture, Shuttter priority or Manual modes. Neither will it let me access the menu or even see pics already taken. I am at a loss at why this has happened as it has not been dropped or handled aggressively. I used it briefly on Monday and then on Tuesday evening the problems arose. I don't know what to do or where to go for help. I have been using your tutorials to learn how to use the camera so I decided to reach out for help. I have not down loaded any apps as I don't know how to do that nor have I updated any firmware. Oh I should mention in the auto mode like SCN or Intellegent plus it does take pictures although there is a slight delay or stickiness when shooting. I have been looking for a reset button to see if resetting would help but I have not been able to find one. So I am really at a loss on what to do next. (ps I live in Ghana so Incannot call Donys toll free number from here.

Keeping my fingers crossed you can help,

Karen

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-HX20V: Why is my camera making a strange noise?

Wed, 03 Dec 2025 05:33:12 -0700

Hi, when I power on my camera and the lens comes out it imediately starts to make a strange humming vibrating noise. The camera still works fine, but the noise is killing me.

Looks like the auto focus or the stabilizer is constantly adjusting. Is there a solution for this or should I start looking for a new one?

Thanks
