I have a DSCP200. After about 6 months the lens got stuck in the out possition and did not go back in. The warantee is not international so be careful when you buy sony. I toke it to the sony service center and the wanted 120 euros and 800000 leu (about 20 euro) to repair it. I was very disappointed. Fortunately on the net i read that if you give the lens a few sharp taps with your fingers it might work. It did work. So save yourself a wad of money, the sony technicians would only give it a sharp tap and give it back and charge you 120 euro plus. all sony repairs start at 120 euros!! i bought the camera in chile and i live in romania. hope that this info is of some help to any cybershot owner.

Thank you! My daughters DSCP200 had the same lens stuck out problem, was repaired by Sony the first time it happened, and now it happened a second time. I had her give the lens a good tap and it fixed it! We also had a Sony camcorder with a different electronic problem, read on the web to give it a good tap on the bottom and it worked also! Go figure.....
