Question Kodak lens will not open

I have a digital camera: Kodak Easy Share LS443. My wife put the camera inside the case before the auto lens had fully retracted and I think she screwed up the gears that moves the lens in and out. Now when I try to turn the camera on, the lens will not come out and makes a clicking noise before shutting off automatically. Any advice on how to fix it.

APD103,

Here is a link to Kodak's site with a solution to a similar problem.
If a gear has broken you would need to get an estimate on repairs.
My understanding of most digital camera repairs is that if it is more that a few years old you could buy a similar quality camera today for what they generally cost to fix.
I have not heard of an inexpensive camera repair.
