My Casio Exilim EX-Z50 camera died again, this time with a different problem. You may that it died in early October as well. Yesterday at lunch I was taking photos with it and the lens became unable to focus. This has happened before, so I turned off the camera and turned it back on. This always fixed the problem in the past. This time instead when I turned it back on the lens came out, the picture looked all blurry, and then the camera shut itself off and displayed "lens error" on the screen. I tried taking the battery out for 5 hours to perform a hard reset since this worked last time, but nothing changed. I called Casio this morning and they need me to send it in for repair. In some ways this is a good thing, because my warranty expires in a month. So off my camera goes to New Jersey. Have a safe trip little camera!
