Power Save Mode

My RX100Vi has the Power Save mode set at 2 minutes.  After 2 minutes of inactivity the camera shuts down.  This includes retracting the lens.  If your lens is not retracting then it is a software issue or mechanical issue.  if the camera was purchased new, you should be able to return it or exchange it.  it is sounding more like a lemon than anything else.

The RX100'a that I have bought new have had no issues.  The ones I bought used had a few issues.
