Broken camera help.

    Hi there, so I dropped my compact camera a few weeks ago while it was still turned on and the lens still extended.

    Ever since then, when I turn it on, the lens struggles for a few minutes to focus, extending, retracting and rotating, but then it gives up on retracts completely.

    The error message on screen says the camera is unable to focus.

    I was just wondering if there was any chance that this is fixable if I brought it to a shop, or would it be more sensible to just spend the money on a new camera.

    It isn't an expensive camera by any stretch of the imagination, I think around €130 at the minute.

    If you'd any advice, I'd really appreciate it.

    Thanks-
