Most point and shoot cameras lens will extend out when focusing, zooming, or powered up. Does the lens on this extend?

No, it does not. However, the zoom works well taking photos. Hope that helps.

No. The lens does not extend out as others do. Previous point and shoot cameras I have had extended or were telescoping and were highly prone to dirt, sand, etc... getting in the moving parts and cutting the life of the camera. Love my Fujifilm FinePix XP60. Works well in harsh environments.

I had a similar problem, but in my case, the lens would not open and extend. I looked at various websites about how to fix this type of problem (but on other cameras), but never got it to work. Unfortunately, it was just weeks after the warranty period, and because I really like the camera, I ended up buying another one, which -- so far -- has not misbehaved.

It does not. It is a fixed focal length prime lens. It's takes superb shots

I figured it out. The lens can not be zoomed in to have full control over the manual focus. When zoomed out to a normal range, the manual focus will fully function, as well as macro, it seems.

I haven't used this lens in years but from memory I would say about 4-5 inches un-extended and about 7 inches zoomed out.

This lens does not zoom in, it is a fixed focal length. You can get pretty close to your subject with this lens but it's not adjustable.

It is and electronic zoom lens so when you push for a closer view the lens expands

No it does not have IS, but with such a wide lens it is not a problem. The longer the lens the more you need IS.

The viewfinder does indeed zoom with the lens - I got the camera out to check. It works really well. The only time I notice that the viewfinder and the lens can get out of sync is when you're vey close to a subject (e.g. in a macro situation) and there's parallax. In such (macro) cases it's best to rely on the screen on the back.

It doesn't extend much at all. I don't have it now as I reverted to rubber lens hoods that allow me to rotate polarizing filters. With Nikon hood I would often touch the polarizing filter glass-not good.

because the lens is a medium telephoto, no, and there is no zoom in or out feature I can find. extension cords are available to place the camera farther away.

No, this lens is like a basic zoom lens, where each value of the focal length corresponds to a certain value of aperture opening.

The front tube extends. It does not have internal zoom or focusing. However, the front tube does not rotate, making it possible to use polarizing and gradient filters.

Yes. Zoom and Focus are manual with the inner ring for the later. It s a little bit to freaky not so gradual control. Its endless so no physical connection with lens I guess.

No; it's a very small "pancake" lens that's got a fixed optical length; no zooming required. Always ready to go. Nothing moves on the lens exterior when it's operating or waking up.

The zoom locks only in the 18mm position. The lens is about 10 inches long when fully extended.
