    I've never heard of the Optimus brand. It's definitely not a well-known camera brand. That might indicate that it's not a really well-made camera. I don't know if that makes any difference under the cirumstances, though. If it got dropped on the floor while the lens was out, it could very well have mechanical damage to the lens transport system. That could screw up the whole thing. The first thing I'd do is try removing the battery and putting it back in. Sometimes that will clear the camera's memory and allow it to start fresh. Same goes for the memory card, if it has one. If that doesn't work, I'd say, yes - you are in deep doo doo.

    I will cross my fingers for you. Good luck!

    My Optmius camera has the same problem. I have no idea what to do. I have tried everything.
