I have a sony dsc-s600. I dropped it onto concrete from three feet or so. Next time I turned it on it made a clicking noise as the lens came out, took a long time to start up and then flashed the E:61:20 code but otherwise worked fine. I tried hitting it etc. with no luck. I then took out every screw I could see and pried it open, breaking of a little tab inside on the lens side of the body in the procces. I put in the batteries with it open, turned it on and the lens came out with no noise and no error code. Snapped it back together, screwed it shut and it seems to work fine now. I have abused this camera for four years now (by no means was this the first time it was dropped hard) and it keeps on tickin, though not literally anymore.
