Answer
If you bought a Canon DSLR you should have bought a Canon lens.
There is an adapter to use a Nikon lens on a Canon EOS body.
Novoflex Lens Mount Adapter - Nikon Lens To Canon EOS Body. $271.00 at B&H Photo. You will have no auto focus or auto metering.
Sell the Nikon lens and buy a Canon lens.

Nikon Coolpix S203 Camera Lens Error?
~~FunkyMon
The other day my camera was sitting upright on a table in our entry way. The lens was extended. I went to pick up the camera and dropped it on the lens onto the floor (about 5/6 feet off the ground onto hardwood). It was jammed for a day until I Googled how to fix it. I hit it against my palm a few times and that seemed to extend the lens and I could take pictures. I went to turn it off and it won't go all the way in and it's jammed. Not sure what to do......I REALLY don't wanna pay for the repairs or buy a new one.
Thanks!

Every single day on YA, several people ask for advice about their broken camera.
Little P&S cameras seem to be fragile, they don't like to be dropped, sat on, or squashed in a bag, least of all while they are turned on and the lens is extended.
If you (or your sibling/cousin/dog) have bent your lens, your camera is broken.
If it suddenly won't take photos, or does other extremely weird things, it is probably broken, even if you're not aware that something HAS happened to the camera.
So now that your camera no longer works, there are a few things you can try (regardless of what the actual symptoms are):
1) READ YOUR MANUAL !!!!!! There is a reason why we get those, they are full of good ideas. They also have a trouble shooting section which may help you figure out what is going on.
2) Realize that batteries have a life span - there comes a time where they simply don't recharge properly anymore. With any luck, all your camera needs is a set of brand new batteries.
3) Pull out the battery for 30 seconds - sometimes that resets the camera. Read the user guide if there is a way to "factory reset" the camera.
4) Check the manufacturer's website. You might find good advice, or user forums, or links to their support section, or a person to "live chat" with or all of the above.
5) Take the camera to a local repair shop. If it is just a little P&S, you'll most likely find it will be cheaper to replace it, than it is to repair it. But it is worth a try, right? However, be very careful about paying for a quote..... it may not be worth it.
6) If you have exhausted all other options and you have decided the camera is now a paperweight, start trying to fix it yourself. I have heard people say they managed to bend the lens back into position and the camera worked again.
Good luck, and make sure to be nice and gentle with your next camera (but stay away from Kodaks and Vivitar ...... they seem to break just by looking at them).
