Exilim Fault
7 Answers
I have an Exilim EX-Z750 which has been a good camera for a few years but yesterday while in use it has 'frozen' with the lens extended. Does anyone know how to fix this or must I sent it back to the makers?

I have the same camera, with the same fault. It happens so rarely though, that it's not important.
It seems to happen if there's the slightly bit of flint on the side of the lens, and when you fully extend it (especially in macro focus). Rarely seems to happen though.

Good!
(Just thought; I assume you tried opening the battery catch to take the battery out? Taking it out then putting it back in again may work too -- just note that you may lose pictures on the SD card.)
I never really have issues with it. I find that it happens if I extend the lens fully and it can't focus on the object it's pointing at.
