I'm not sure that this will solve your problem; however, try taking out the batteries and putting them back in, and see if this releases your lock up. If not, customer service will walk you through what to try next. They are very helpful, and stayed on the phone with me through the whole process of fixing when I had my problem. If they can't fix it, you will probably have to send the camera in for repair or replacement. Good luck

You need to set the camera in "bulb" mode for any exposure over 30". Then use the remote to activate the shutter and then release the shutter.

Put the camera in rapid fire, manual focus, out the trigger in bulb... hit it once and the shutter will stay engaged.That might work.

Did you drop the camera? Probably you have a mechanical problem , should be easy to fix

On my D810 the with the camera in "Bulb" mode, push and hold the button and after a second or two you can release the button and the shutter will stay open. Tapping the button again will close the shutter to end the exposure

Make sure the battery is fresh and inserted correctly. By the way, access the battery compartment at the rear by the switch, not at the lens.

Check your camera first if it it can be xontrolled by a remote control. Check your menu tab under the timer tab.

I too have the TZ3 Lumix and the lens shutter stopped working on mine. When I contacted Panasonic for repair info..(difficult to speak to a real live person)....I found out that it would cost $161.50 to look at it and I had to insure it and ship it to Illinois. That was half the cost of the camera! Did you get your lens shutter repaired? Or did you replace your camera with another one. My camera is 3 weeks beyond warranty eligibility.

Hi, sorry to hear that, i have no idea if fixing is needed, but have you checked if it is locked? there is a wheel you can can turn near the shutter relese that might be set to lock and thus you can't use it.hope this is the only issue and that this will solve your problem.

The fix is real easy. No need to take the camera apart. Order the Shutter Button Release Assembly from Sony. Cost was around $18.00 + tax + Shipping. I received the new assembly in one week. Note the angle of the old assembly before removing it so that you can line up the new one correctly. To remove the old button assembly, use a rubber bottle opener to get a good grip. Turn slightly counter clockwise. Then use your fingernail to lift it up. Look inside using a magnifing (sp) glass and find the pieces that broke off, a spring, a small plastic tip and a small snap ring. Look at the opening and you'll notice two slots, that's where the two little feet will line up. Again using the rubber bottle opener and pressing down slightly, turn the new assembly clockwise. You'll feel it. Make sure to clean out the pieces that broke off. I couldn't find the spring, now I can't use that little wheel to bring the viewfinder into focus for my eye. LCD is still sharp as are the pictures. Just the viewfinder. Good luck. June Sat, 18 Aug 2007 18:50:55 +0000 Whoops: x21083252 Sony Direct Accessories

I would say try to find a way to reset the camera to all it's default settings to see if it was just something silly you pressed/touched. If that doesn't work, check your return policy. Other than that.....um....try a hammer.

Try resetting camera by using a needle. Insert needle in little between usb port and memory card. Worked for me.

Try a new battery. Mine has worked fine. Be sure camera is set on remote connection so the remote and camera "see" each other.

Hello hello Rmauma...! The Little push-button on the side... is working... like the release-button... on your camera... Push it In... and turn the lens... same way... as your normal lenses. If the button... or the adapter is stuck... Perhaps try... to twist the adapter... just a fraction... in both directions... while pressing... on the button. This can give the Little locking pin... enough room... to Work. Now take the lens... with the adapter... one hand on each... close your eyes... and let your hands Work... Hope this will help... Greetings... Jakob.
