Canonsx260hs flash position is incorrect.

The main reasons for this situation are:

1. It may be that the connecting rods on both sides of the flash are rusted due to poor moisture resistance, and the resistance is too great for the spring to bounce.

2. If there is a level or rubber plug on the hot boots, the flash won't turn on.

3. In the menu, check whether the flash is turned off or whether the mode dial is set to A+, and automatically focus on an object in a dark place to see if the built-in flash will automatically rise at this time. You can also set the mode to Av, and press the flash pop-up key to see if it can pop up.

4. Check whether the flash switch is turned on in the menu.

If it doesn't work, turn off the camera, take out the battery, wait a minute to recharge it, and then try again.

6. If it doesn't work, go to Canon official website and ask online customer service to see if it can be solved and whether it is recommended to send it for repair.
