sony dsc-w190: The mechanical shutter inside the lens is stuck open

Sun, 09 Aug 2026 17:01:07 -0700

The camera's mechanical lens shutter is stuck open. Live preview and video work fine using the electronic shutter, but still photos come out streaked and overexposed because the physical shutter fails to close during capture

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W150: Sony DSC-W150 won't focus at normal distances

Thu, 06 Aug 2026 03:14:25 -0700

Hi everyone,

I'm having an autofocus issue with my Sony DSC-W150.

When the camera is zoomed out (wide angle), it won't focus on subjects at normal distances. The lens doesn't seem to move at all while trying to autofocus. However, if I zoom in, autofocus works normally. It also focuses correctly when taking close-up shots (macro).

At first, I thought the camera couldn't focus at all, but it seems the problem only occurs at wide angle and normal shooting distances.

Has anyone experienced this before? Is this likely a focus motor, lens mechanism, or calibration issue? Is there any known fix?

Thanks in advance!

Tue, 07 Jul 2026 08:40:22 -0700

After taking a lot of photos my camera randomly shut down, the lens did not retract. I thought the battery was just drained so I charged it. After it was full, I placed it again in the camera. When I pressed the on button, green light blinked once and also the focus light blinked once but the camera won't turn on.

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-H20: Power button light is flashing but not booting up

Tue, 07 Jul 2026 08:31:09 -0700

I recently bought a used sony h20, which the seller told me supposedly still works but has a broken battery. I bought a new one but the problem remains: the green light on the power button and the light beside the lens flash once when i press the power or playback button, but then nothing else happens. I tried connecting the camera directly to an AC adapter as well as my computer, but still no luck. What could be the issue here?

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-S2100: My old sony cybershot's LCD isn't working properly.

Thu, 28 May 2026 04:12:51 -0700

As you can see, it looks as if the brightness had been turned up super high (IDK what exactly this problem is called). I have confirmed it's just the screen. The photos are fine. I can still make out some stuff when I view the camera at an angle, with the bottom of the camera facing me.

I tried factory resetting it using the "Initialize" option but that didn't help. Also tried removing and re-seating the LCD ribbon cable. Any chance I can get away with not having to replace the screen?
