    This is not a joke........ Use a can of compressed air and blow around the lens while it is extended. Take a relatively firm approach with this problem slap the camera into your palm two or three times. Not lens down in this case, but using the side or rear of the camera to make contact with your palm Make sure you have the camera cord around your wrist so as not to lose it across the room. Do this several times and turn it on and off till the message of tuen ona nd off no longer shows(if it ever did) and the lens retracts and works correctly. The compressed air will help remove any accumulated dust that is jambing the lens. This is a sony tech fix and not a joke, they charge you $90 to do this and this fault is not uncommon in many of these small cameras dust and dirt get taken into the lens bay ad eventually cause it to stick. Hence the use of comptressed air with the brutal approach

    Had the same issue - found out on some forum that it was due to some dirt stuck in the opening gears that needed being dislodged by banging (not too hard!) a corner of the camera on a table - and it worked for me! Good luck
