I have had my canon powershot A85 for apprx 2 years and about 1 month ago it started taking runny, blurry, pink looking pictures on and off. Now it does it all the time no matter what setting I have it on. I haven't dropped it. What could this be?
This is a CCD problem It is known about. Checkout Canon customer support for replacement or discount on a new one
Charge Coupled Device
It is the sensor that captures the image.
As these camera are integrated devices - that is the whole thing is machine made in a block
[Like a Timex watch]
There is no 'Human' intervention possible to rectify it.
What Canon will do is simply change the camera for another or make a large discount available for your selection on a new camera
Which they will do depend on the model and other matters

Nothing exceptional happenned it just started taking these pinkish pictures which look like watercolor painting that you thrown a bucket of water at. Our extended warranty just ended 1 month and half ago!!!! ARRR...
I've had my PowerShot A85 for about 3 years and it made excellent

I have a Canon Powershot A85 for about three years. One month ago it started taking blurry pictures with a lot of white horizontzl lines. I read the manual and tried everything I could, but it does not help. Finally, I call Canon consumer support. Surprisingly, Canon wanted me to send the camera back and will fix it for free, including shippings. I hope I will get it back in two weeks. April 6, 2008.
My 3 year old A85 ahs today started taking the same water colour runny pictures. Thanks for the help.
when I try to take a picture its like I am looking at a fog
