I have a canon slr and the lens is stuck... It won't let me turn the focus, and it is sort of slanted (it seems as if it has been pushed in on one part. What do I do!!! and I was wondering what the repair costs are going to be if I try to get it at a shop? Please Help me!!!
It came with the camera.
The lens is pushed in from the top and I can't turn it.
And yes, its an 18-55mm one.

Take it to your local canon service centre to check it out.
There isn't much we can do or suggest without actually seeing the camera.
If it is a simple problem, try to see if you turned on manual focusing. AF/MF button. Does the focus work after toggling that switch?
If not, you will need to take it to a canon service centre. It does sound pretty bad.
If you are just using the kit lens (18-55mm). It is typically isn't worth fixing. It is an excellent excuse to buy better and more lenses.

Every single day on YA, several people ask for advice about their broken camera.
Little P&S cameras seem to be fragile, they don't like to be dropped, sat on, or squashed in a bag, least of all while they are turned on and the lens is extended.
If you (or your sibling/cousin/dog) have bent your lens, your camera is broken.
If it suddenly won't take photos, or does other extremely weird things, it is probably broken.
So now that your camera no longer works, there are a few things you can try (regardless of what the actual symptoms are):
1) READ YOUR MANUAL !!!!!! There is a reason why we get those, they are full of good ideas. They also have a trouble shooting section which may help you figure out what is going on.
2) Pull out the battery for 30 seconds - sometimes that resets the camera. Read the user guide if there is a way to "factory reset" the camera.
3) Check the manufacturer's website. You might find good advice, or user forums, or links to their support section, or a person to "live chat" with or all of the above.
4) Take the camera to a local repair shop. If it is just a little P&S, you'll most likely find it will be cheaper to replace it, than it is to repair it. But it is worth a try, right?
5) If you have exhausted all other options and you have decided the camera is now a paperweight, start trying to fix it yourself. I have heard people say they managed to bend the lens back into position and the camera worked again.
Good luck, and make sure to be nice and gentle with your next camera (but stay away from Kodaks...... they seem to break just by looking at them).
