I dropped my power shot SX160IS camera and distorted the zoom lens unit which is stuck and so will no longer retract. The camera is now non operational, it switches off because of the non retraction of the lens. Is it relatively easy to replace just the lens unit with a new one? or is the cameras not repairable? thank you very much for any help. alan
I’ve got an sx610hs with the same issue, only after I dropped it I stepped on it(it was night with tall grass, very depressing) currently attempting my own repairs, guess these aren’t very popular cameras as there’s not very much info online for fixes :(
