Hi,I recently bought a Olympus c- 55 ,it comes on but the lcd screen is too dark to make out wat is being displayed,why is this? I can just make out it also says no card in the middle of screen,can u help

The Olympus FE-230 requires you to use a xD M-Type memory card to store your pictures on. These are usually available fairly cheap at Wal-Mart or Best Buy. When you insert your new card into the camera, the message will go away and the screen will appear its normal brightness.

I had this on xmas day and was fine for 1st 50 photos then a 2 cm area of the picture on the screen has disappeared. although the photos download ok its rather annoying for a new camera that was not cheap

If this is a black spot that's in the same place on the LCD screen I would say that there are several pixels that have burnt out and definitely a warranty case.

Can I change the color of pictures to black and white? If so, how?

The FE-230 doesn't have a black&white mode. However, just about any photo editing program will give you the capability of converting color pictures to black&white. Doing so on a computer also gives you much more control over things like brightness and color.

My olympus FE 340 is showing a black screen when it comes on. Photos are showing black also. However, I can review photos that are already on the camera, and the graphics/icons on the screen when I go to...

Hi,
There are two possibilities for said problem, one is ccd imager chip failure that will be replaced and other is jammed aperture that is inbuilt in lens mechanism and lens assembly will be replaced.
In either problem, camera needs visual check of qualified tech, local camera repair shop will help you.
Thanks.

Olympus Fe-4000 screen is completely black no image available

Stephan is exactly right. I have a FE-4000 and the LCD screen is most likely dead. As Stephan said, the screen should be replaced by a professional.

Cheers to all

My FE-230 is only 2 years old and will not turn on/off properly

This sounds remarkedly like a camera that has been dropped. Even by someone else! The odd noise it the can[mera trying to set the lens up and failing. The black screen is because the lens has not travelled the distance etc. multiple problems !
it needs a complete overhaul and may well be cheaper to ditch it and get a new camera

My olympus fe-170 lcd screen won't show ANY pictures.

it would appear that the lcd screen has malfunctioned and would need repair.... you can try power cycle by taking batteries out and press and hold power button down for 10 secs, draining all power out of camera, then put the batteries back in and try again

White screen with black stripes, black spot

Sounds as if the camera would need to be sent to Olympus for service. You may want to call their Customer Service to discuss repair options and pricing. Their telephone number is 800-622-6372 option 2 and then option 3.
