The fix is to contact the repair shop and explain that they may have "unstuck" the lens but they messed up the focussing. Let them fix it on their dime, not yours.
The camera might not of had been dropped or abused at that moment, but it sounds like one of your ribbons is not full connected to its port due to a previous unnoticeable drop or mishandling. In other words, if you are savvy enough to open the camera, remove the ribbons (2 of them, found on the front side of the camera coming from the lens) and re-insert them into their ports. I have only needed to do this once on this particular camera, but at least 30 times on the Exilim line of Casio cameras. Hope this helps.
You can try to "fix" this problem by holding down the shutter release button as soon as the camera power up.If this does not work you will need to replace the lens assembly. This should only be done by a qualified tech.
This is usually caused by one of two circumstances. (1) The user dropped the camera while the lens was extended causing a mechanical failure. (2) The lens attempts to extend while in a pouch or pocket without the user's knowledge. This usually happens when the user is carrying the camera with the battery in. When/if the REC button or power button is pressed accidentally, the lens will attempt to extend but can't. This causes the servo motors to "smoke".
try taking the battery out, and then putting it back in, and hit the power button a few times. i drop my camera all the time. make sure your battery is charged before you declare it broken. [hahah, i did that once]
The only way to fix a lens error is to send it into repairs. Call them at 800-706-2534 option 2 and they will tell you the closest place to send it to.
Hello, I'm Mark Faith from the states. I purchased the CASIO EX-Z700 series. However, I accidentally dropped the camera when the camera was on and the lens was extended. It makes a grating sound, and the monitor screen said "Lens error".
Now, the camera is turned off with its lens extended. When I see the lens from the top, the lens position is more concentrated to the right, and the gaps between each lens is bigger on the left hand side of the lens.
I sincerely hope this would help you to analyze the lens situation. I'll be patiently waiting for a list of solutions. Thanks.

Does the lens retract when you shut the camera off? Or at least press the On/Off button?
It doesn't sound like there is a problem with the lens if your buttons aren't working, it sounds mostly to me that a cable got dislodged and that has disabled your buttons and zoom switch.
