Hi everyone. I have a canon ELPH POWERSHOT 130 that I have owned for over 15 years. It’s fantastic and I love it but I recently dropped it and now everytime I try to turn it on it just says “Lens ErrorWill shut down automatically Restart camera”. I am not sure how to restart without being able to get to any menu on the screen. Also to note, the lens continues to open and close seeming to try to focus but then it will just go back and there will be a continuous clicking noise for a few seconds. If you guys have any tips I would really appreciate it!

Great camera in its day. Released in 2013. Not sure if it's still serviceable. Shipping and repair would likely exceed replacement value. Best advice. It's time to start shopping for a new camera. 😉
