Blurring picture talking a bluring and pinkish looking picture - no fucus?

Background blur is a consequence of a shallow depth of field, meaning that the distance where things are in focus is a small area in front of you. Closer, it's blured. Further and is blured too.

Backbround blur can be obtained with:

1. using a big aperture - you can't change the aperture on the Finepix, as it hasn't a diaphragma, but a ND filter.
   
2. using a long lens - that means you have to use the biggest zoom you can with your camera
   
3. close subject and distant background - when you use a longer lens, the depth of field get shallow, so you have to garantee that the background is out of the zone where everything is on focus.

There are some semiconductors or capacitors that are leaky. Might need thorough check up inside the TV.

Do the pictures still look this way when they are downloaded to your computer or just when played back on the camera screen? Was the camera exposed to high heat (like being left in a hot car)?

Hi dear, first of all check the camera setting .
Is it set on a long shutter mode.
Are there any good photo , if not the camera will be R.I.P.
Get another one ,don't waste your time.

This sounds like it might be a defective CCD imager. If so, Canon should fix this for you for free, including free shipping both ways. This is regardless of your camera's warranty status. Please check this link for more info.
Applicable cameras include:
A40, A60, A70, A75, A80, A85, A95, A300, A310, S1 IS, S60, S200, S230, S330, S400, S410, S500, SD100, SD110, IXUS V2/V3/300/400/430/500/II/IIs, IXY Digital 200a/300a/320/400/450/500/30/30a

Melted shadowed and blurred pinkish pictures are symptom of defective CCD sensor.

The CCD sensor is the devices that captures light to generate picture. In your camera this part is faulty and must be replaced.

That means that lens are either misplaced or dirty inside.

The lens assembly must be taken apart at a repair shop to fix this problem.

The various solutions include:

try to set focus range (settings), to infinity or to an approximate distance to the object you need to take a photo of as sometimes the automatic setting does not always do a godd job at focusing , or look at the lens when it is on if its got grease use a wet camera lens cleaning kit (someone touched the glass of the lens ) a s grease makesa it hard for the camera to focus , hence blurrig or go into your options and lower the iso mode or take it off night node if any as the iso mode leads to high exposure time which means any light that changes would record as a smear hence blurring or use flash.

Sounds like the image sensor is malfunctioning (common symptoms: distorted images with purple or green cast, completely dark images, flickering lines across the screen.)
