focusing problem

[LeSo;eil]

I own a Fujifilm S5700. Have had it for years. Great little camera-and yet....... I have developed a focusing problem. To autofocus, press the button half-way as usual, and I get an icon that indicates
this-!AF. None of the trouble shooting remedies seem to work. Never had this problem before. Is my camera finally dead? Camera takes fine distance pics. Any
help would be appreciated. Thanks. I want to use it to take pictures of coins.

Listen-I am 78 years old, I still live in the first house I bought 52 years ago, and am still married to my bride for 59 years. I like to hold on to stuff. I liked this camera until----------- Oh, and I have trouble using a smartphone.
