best camera lens cases image
superstar
dumb dumb dumb. took my kodak easyshare (4mp) to a beach and some sand must have got in the lens casing (which retracts and extends). i can remove all the screws, but can't 100% open the backing as the on/off rotational switch on top stradles the front and back housing.
when i turn the camera on, the lens casing only comes out half way ... as though sand is jammed in there.
any bright ideas for getting it working again?
Answer
same thing happened to me. The lens barrel would not detract. One piece of advice,
DON'T DO IT YOURSELF.
I can't stress this enough.
There is a reason they tell you to send it to a professional to get it fixed. It sounds easy: crack it open, clean out the inside, and close it up but alot can go wrong within thoses three little steps. If you have a waranty then you will have nulled it if you open it up. Depending on where you live, you can either go to your local yellow pages and look up people specialized in electronics repair or if you're living in NYC, San Francisco or anywhere with a heavy asian community just take it around there.

Anyone know about Soligor Miranda camera lens?
Sheri
I have a Soligor Miranda camera lens in a leather case. Inside the lens cap it says f=13.5 cm 1:3.5 and No. 2620470. It appears to be in really good shape.
Can anyone tell me anything about it and what it is worth?
Answer
If you sell it with a functioning camera, it will add about $5 to the camera (worth about $5-15).
Sorry, but almost no one will give anything for anything Miranda. They weren't great when new & you can't get it serviced.
