If your Sony Cyber-Shot (model DSC-S90) is failing to produce in-focus images—the focus is blurry or uneven across an image—or you see dark spots, use this guide to replace the lens of the camera.
Camera lenses work by collecting and focusing light reflected from the scene that the photographer wants to capture. A faulty or damaged lens will create dark spots on each image or cause pesky issues with the focus.
Before using this guide, clean your lens to make sure the problem is internal. Typically, smudges, fingerprints, and a small buildup of dust can be removed using a dust blower and lens cleaning fluid with a microfiber cloth. Make sure to never put the cleaning fluid directly onto the lens, but to spray it onto the cloth. After cleaning, take some sample photos at various distances and observe the focus to confirm that the issues are from the lens itself. If you’re not sure the lens is causing issues, review the troubleshooting page.
Before beginning, make sure to power off the camera and disconnect from any external power source.
