My Canon digital camera broke itself on Christmas!?

I have one of the digital powershot “elph” models… it is 2.5 years old but has never had any trouble until yesterday. I went to turn it on and it would not function. It made a sound like the lens may have been jammed (it would not expand out from the camera), but then when I turned the dial to “play” mode (used to review pictures), it would not perform that function either. The power is working, because the power light comes on. And it makes a mechanical sound as if the lens is jammed, but like I said, I don’t think that is the problem, since the camera normally plays pictures without expanding the lens. Does anyone know what I can do? I love my camera and use it all the time! Not sure I can afford a new one right now. Thanks!

You have to go to where you oringanally purchased the camera. They may exchange it if you had a warrenty otherwise you may have to send it to the canan company and they will evaluate it and decide whether or not to fix it. the same thing happened with my kodak and they would not fix it because they claimed I must have broke it somehow.
