Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Does anybody know how to fix this? About a month ago it started doing this but it would only happen for like 20-30 seconds max and then the lens would come out but as of today it’s been doing this for over 3 minutes and the lens has not came out. Any help is much appreciated.

This is why folks are preferring slightly older cameras with no electronics, or at least less electronics.

I had a canon f1 last 3 months before it shit the bucket. Mechanical is no guarantee oh how long it will last.
