If your Fujifilm Finepix T500 camera lens has stopped adjusting in or out of the camera’s body, use this guide to replace the lens gears. The lens of the camera is what focuses light to produce images. If the alignment of the gears is broken, then the lens cannot focus correctly to produce any images other than white light.

Before beginning, power off your camera completely and remove the batteries. This guide requires soldering so if you're not experienced or have this skill, refer to this guide and/or ask someone with experience for assistance. The soldering iron gets very hot and will burn.
