I have a fujifilm finepix f40fd i dropped it and now when i switch it on to take photos it says "zoom error" how do i fix this?
The lens needs to be dismantled and reset.
If your camera is under warranty then fuji will replace for free. If not then it may cost around £90 to have the lens unit replaced.
Cost of repair will depend on where you take it to get it repaired and will undoubtedly be more than the cost of a new camera.
However.....
It can be repaired for as little as £30 if you look hard enough ;-)
An update to the initial posting. As a warranty service provider, I can state that physical damage as a result of mis-use is NOT covered under warranty. Lens problems caused by dropping the camera are considered mis-use and are not covered. There is a good posibility that the lens assembly is just out of timing and can be rebuilt, but the cost to do this will not be paid by the manufacturer.
I don't want you to believe that this repair will be for free as it will not.
Regards,
Dan
