I dropped my sony DSC P150 camera

and the lens became wonky. I've managed to straighten it, but now it won't close when turned on/off. I really need some help as this is my mum's camera.
If anyone could give some help on what I could do to fix it it would be very VERY apprechiated.

Hi Viki,
Is the lens physically bent at all? Also, are you getting any error messages when you turn the camera on, and does it act strangely, for example, asking you to turn it off/ on again, or anything like that? Let me know a few details and I will see if there's anything you can do to fix it.

I have the same problem. When turned on it states E:81:00 (or E:61:00) it flashes so fast you can't see. The other message is Turn power off and off and the lens won't retract. You can press it when turning it off and it will close but not work.

Take a look at this site:
http://www.e18error.com/repair.html

Although that site is focused on Canons, the E18 error described there is basically the same problem you're having, just a different brand. Basically something is preventing the lens from moving as it should. There are some tips on that webpage that involve things like gently pulling or blowing on the lens, and those tips might help you. Give them a shot. But only if you're no longer under warranty!
