You are looking at the retractable LENS COVER, not the shutter or diaphragm.

Is your battery fully charged?

1. Turn it off, take out the battery, wait a minute, replace battery. Turn it on and off.

2. Take a squeeze-bulb blower and blow around and into all four sides of the opening. Dirt could be making it stick.

3. GENTLY tap the camera on a table to see if the cover blased close.

If none of this works repair is needed. IF anyone can do it. It may well not even be worth having it repaired. 

If the camera otherwise works well, you can keep using it.
