No camera

My camera has stopped working today. I can turn it on, and view pictures and even take pictures. The only problem is all the pictures turn out solid black. The lens is no longer seeing anything. The good news is that in the process of fiddling with it, I found a couple of lost pictures that were on the internal memory that I didn't know my camera had. One of them is a good one of Lyndsay from newyears. So, I haven't decided yet if I'm going to spend money on a new camera quite yet, so I'm not sure if you will get to see any more pictures any time soon.
