My camera lens is screwed up. jammed into the camera. is there anything i can do to fix it?

Question

it happened when my brother tripped,falling ontop of it. ive tried fixing it myself but it doesnt work. any options other than getting a new one or taking it in?

Answer 1

The only suggestion I can give you is to use a safety pin or something small and strong that can go between the lens and the camera. Use it to pry it open as you turn on the camera to on. Gently do it, though. If it doesn't work, you can use it as display or something.
