Camera Frozen ??? Anyone help.....!!!

[..MD..]

Hi guys my brother has a fuji finepix s5600 digital camera..

He was taking a photo and it froze on the screen shot of what he had taken ..

It wont do anything now


All you get when you turn it to camera mode is " FOCUS ERROR" It bleeps and a red light flashes in the top left corner.

He has been told to knock it to see if it will free up but i thought i would ask on here first..


Regards

The only thing I can think of is taking the battery out for 15-20 mins in the hope that it will reset itself.

I'd go and have search through the Fuji forum at DPReview as well to see if anyone else has had a similar problem.

Good luck.

Somewhere in the menu (if you can get into it!) there will be 'return to factory settings' or 'reset' or 'clear settings' or something like.

You might well find it is dead. My Ixus went the same way It was a Canon though!
