Possible that the memory is also corrupt or has images that seems to conflict. So it is best to remove the memory card and scan on a PC and format the card, if images were transferred you can format on the camera. Also if the camera hangs up all the time there is some error within which might be related to the processor or optical drive error.
Lens errors are fairly common. Usually it's sand or grit interfering with the lens extension mechanism. Or the camera's been dropped with the lens extended. Or the camera has been powered on, but the lens had been blocked preventing its extension. Or the battery ran down with the lens extended ...Here are some troubleshooting steps that you can try that may (or may not) correct it. They only seem to work for less than 40% of the lens errors, but if the camera is out of warranty (or repair cost approaches that of the camera), they're worth that try. Some of the later steps do involve some risk to the camera, so carefully weigh your options before deciding to conduct them. And here's a video summary of the steps:
When you view your pictures on the ST700, tap the screen and there should be a row of icons in the left side of the camera. There's one a trash can (second one from the top) press the icon and confirm if you want the specific photo to be deleted.
If you have been using this camera outdoors, then the one causing your problem is a grit of sand jamming the lens. Hold your camera with your right hand with the lens facing the ground. Next, tap the camera's base to your left palm while powering on the camera. You might want to do this several times. If it still wont work, and you can avail of the warranty to save repair cost.
I have the same problem with the same camera, and this is the help one of these Experts gave me. Didn't work for me but give it a try. Good luck.
The lens assembly could be stuck, or the battery could be low or
weak. Make sure, first, that the contacts inside the battery are clean
(clean them with a qtip and isopropyl alcohol). There's a couple of web
sites that explain what things you can try to get it working, and they
say about half the cameras can be made to work trying their suggestions: http://camerarepair.blogspot.com/2007/12/fixing-lens-error-on-digital-camera.html Even though the title of this page is lens errors, it applies to "stuck lens", and has steps to take to try to fix it. This site is for battery problems, which is the other thing that might be going on with your camera: http://camerarepair.blogspot.com/2007/11/simple-fix-for-dead-cameras-that-wont.html Try these things, and you have a good chance of getting the camera working again.
The problem you describe is frequently the result of dirty/corroded
battery contacts in the camera. Try removing the batteries and
cleaning the inside contacts with a fine wire brush, steel wool, or
fine sandpaper. Remove any residue left from the cleaning, then
replace the batteries. Hopefully all will be well.
If the cleaning doesn't work you might want to check the Kodak troubleshooting guide at:
Remove the batteries and clean the battery contacts inside the camera
with a soft cloth (a heavy buildup on the contacts may require cleaning
with a fine wire brush, steel wool, or sandpaper). Remove any residue
that the cleaning leaves in the camera, and then reinstall the
batteries. This clears most power-on problems, but if yours persists,
