Camera turns on, shows image in lens for about 3 seconds, beeps three times, then shuts off. Lens is stuck in out position and camera is warm to the touch near the flash.
Same problem! camera HAD been dropped....carefully pull up with a gentle twist on the 'tilted ' side.
thanks for the tip! camera works fine!!
Omg thankyou o much i had my camera for my 13 and it was brand new, solution:>Camera got dropped..had the same problem here, looked after reading this and the smallest part of the telescoping lense was just a little tilted. Gently moved it out and popped it back, works fine now.
My camera was stuck with lens open, beeped three times with no other action wwhen I pressed power. I fiddled with the lens as mentioned above and it now works. My fiddle I mean, I tried to align them (even though they already looked aligned). Not sure if I dare to take it on my 2 week holiday,
Same problem - lens had got stuck & screen wasn't working. So recharged batteries, put them back in & had the start up beep & sometimes the 3 beeps. Nothing obviously out of alignment with lens but gave it a wiggle & it retracted next time I tried turning it on, but still wouldn't go. Plugged in my phone adapter & it worked. Turns out must have been the lens, plus the rechargeable batteries had got too old & lost charge. Hope this helps someone.
I HAVE A SAMSUNG L301 CAMERA WITH LENS STUCK OUT I,VE REPLACED BATTERY AND CAMERA TURNS ON BUT LENS STILL STUCK AND I CAN,T GET ANYTHING TO WORK
Sometimes pulling a little harder is needed don't be afraid to do it, and you may have to pop it once or twice..
Had this problem on a Samsung D85. When I took the back cover off I noticed that the metal frame of the LCD was at a slightly different voltage to the negative battery connection. Less than 0.1volts so I was doubtful that it was anything important. Anyway I soldered a wire between the minus battery connection and the nearest bit of the LCD frame. Problem was solved.
I have a totally different problem with my samsung,there is a permanent blue light & will not work,any ideas peeps?
Thanks For the Advice Guys that happened to me tonite! My samsung kept beeping; then i looked at lens and it was tilted.. I popped it back...Thank Yall :)

The above advise about gently pulling and twisting the lens worked perfectly. Thank you so much!
I just had the same problem and figured out what it was with my camera. One of my kids had got it and turned it on and then dropped it. The lens looked as if it was fine, but when I took a closer look I realized that it had been stuck on one side. I grasped the lens on each side and gently pulled while twisting and it popped back into place. I then turned it back on and off again and the problem was solved.
Solution worked great!! I was just about to give up & buy a new camera. I LOOKED at my lens that was extended & it WAS tilted just a little. I gently pulled it & it popped into place. THANKS!! I really like this camera because it's simple to use-so hated to have to get a new one!!
Same problem here. I observed the smaller piece of the telescoping lens looking tilted. Grabbed it and pulled it gently away from the camera body. It popped out a little, seated itself level and retracted itself. Good as new! Thanks for the tip.
You need a new charger or a new mechanism filter whcich allows you to enduce and privde more frequent stabilty for the lense and its froiter

okay.... Try this if lens is stuck out... look at the side profile of the lens... you should notice the it is not even.. the lens is probably stuck at a slight angle.. GENTLY force the lens to where it looks even... should fix the problem.... worked for me.

Finallly sent it in for repair - two times! First time, it took several weeks before I got it back. When it arrived it still would not work, so it had to be sent in again. Then they tell me I broke the camera myself so if they are to send it back (unrepaired) I would have to pay them $50. At this time, paying shipping costs back and forth I figured it wouldnt be cost effective. All together it cost me a total of $200 for 15 pictures taken with the first battery set, which after it would do nothing but beep three times. Some people mention the cause being that they dropped it, but I never did, it was like that straight out of the box.

the lense is stuck and it makes the beeping sound.
the lense won't shut and it turns on for about 3 seconds then turns off but nothing is on the display screen
Same prob here... Except mine was very severe. I actually had to stick my finger nail around the silver piece around the lens and pry it off. Then it worked perfectly. Thanks to this website!!!!
i turn my camera on. No image appears. Then it beeps three times and the lens stays out and the camera wont turn off.Â
My camrea turns on beeps three times but the lens stays closed!!
My problem is very similar, but my lens is stuck in the in position and I cant get it to come out, The green light does flash one time and it beeps three times.
I have the same problem but my lens is not stuck and there is not way for me to grab at it. I didn't drop it so just becareful this doesn't happen again. Mine is still now working
I have the same problem and eventually in desparation I took the cover off to see if I could spot anything. I turned the lens inside and things appeared to click into place. Problem is that I think I have now disconnected the power switch at the top. I think that camera is now a bin job unless anyone can give advice about what I might have done wrong.
camera beeps four times and then shuts off

Does anyone provide insturctions to move them on the right place please?
Camera beeps three times
Whenever I put in my batteries, the power only last for about 2-3 minutes. It beeps me and says "low battery", but the indicator on the camera reads the battery life as full. I brought new batteries and a charger, so I know it's not the batteries.
