There are a couple of possibilities, both of which require you to take your camera apart. One is that the LCD screen has failed, and needs to be replaced. You can get very good step by step instruction videos on Youtube. Another possibility is that the ribbon connector for the screen is not all the way in its connection. Again, your best bet is to find a good video for your camera on Youtube that shows you how to take it apart and put it back together. If you are handy, it's not difficult. I took two of them and made one very good one out of them.

WhY photos canon A470? i have a canon powershot A470 camera and there's a problem taking photo.. whenever i take a picture, it's either fully white or have white stripes on the pictures.. i thought it

Perhaps you check the settings. If the camera is on nightshot, or manual, with a long shutter time or wilde open diafragma your pictures are all overblown, or stripes come from lights. Put the camera in automatic. The main dial on the green camera logo, and try again. If this does not work, Please let me know how the settings are on your camera. Success

Canon Powershot A470 - outdoor pictures are white bright. Pls assist.

The Problem with the Canon PowerShot A470 Digital Camera Is That, where do I start? I took my mum's camera(without her permission!). And used it at school to take pictures during a Prefect Party I had. Everything went well till the lens jammed(fully extended) I tried switching it on and off, but I still got that error message.

White photos canon A470? i have a canon powershot A470 camera and there's a problem taking photo.. whenever i take a picture, it's either fully white or have white stripes on the pictures.. i thought it...

I had this problem too, I think it's the shutter problem, it doesn't close
when a picture is taken, therefore, causing the over exposed photo...I've sent it back to canon, still waiting for the reply...

Canon A470 will only down load 5 - 10 pic then stops?????

Dear Jason ,

Just use a CARD READER to fast transfer of pictures into your computer. I am also using Canon A470 . that is not having this problem but it's taking too much time when we transfer pictures via data cable .
