To whom it may concern, Slightly blurred red/pinkish LCD screen when camera is switched on. If I look at pic's taken before this happened they look ok on LCD screen. 1 week ago I switched the camera on to use, checked battery level all ok and the view on the lcd screen was ok. 5 hours later switched on camera again and then lcd screen reflected the blurred red/pinkish LCD screen. If you take a photo now that is what is looks like on playback as well. Even the other modes on the selection dial seem to have this issue. Apart from that all seems ok. I tried a full factory restore, but to no avail, same problem. Had the camera for just over 3 years. Many thanks William

I am having the same exact problem. I have tried the suggestions for fixing any barrel issues because I first thought that was what the problem was....those fixes were not successful with this issue. The LCD screen is basically black when turned on but you can catch a glimpse of reddish pink tones and outlines when in a brightly lit area. The same is seen in any photo taken since this problem arose. The pictures previously taken on the camera show up just fine on the screen, exactly how they should. When you take a new picture it shows up as a blurry reddish hued picture that you can't really even see except for the hues of reddish color and perhaps a few slight outlines of things. When the pictures are transfered to the computer they appear exactly the same... And, my camera hasn't been exposed to any high heat as far as I know (took pictures fine on Dec 29, 2010 and problem started around Jan 4, 2011...it had been in a drawer in the house until that date).
