Camera Shutter Stuck

[muskox]

I have a Lumix Panasonic DMC FSSO. I have been fiddling around with the controls on the camera and the bottom half of the shutter seems to have wedged into position across the bottom half of the lens. I pushed the top half out of the way and it seems to have stayed there.
I have tried to revert to the factory setting, but to no avail.
Is the camera shop the best option, or is there something else that I can try to 'mend' it?

Do you mean a DMC-FS50 digital camera.
You might try talking with Panasonic support first.

There is also a service centre locator on that page

This is very useful information, thank you. I will follow it up.
