I have take photos outdoors and theyre too dark to see.

Sounds like you have a broken lens. You can either repair it or buy a new camera (which is probably cheaper than repairing).

Hello

If you can view the pictures previously taken with the camera on the camera LCD, but the new photos just come out black, this is most probably a blown ccd.

This is a expensive component to replace, and you will also need specialized equipment to do this yourself.

I would suggest that you take your camera to your nearest repair shop and let them test the ccd.

Hope this can be of help.

Kind regards
Andrea

The only reason the camera will be taking dark photos is when it is under exposing the image taken. This can be due to the exposure compensation set to under expose the metered exposure. Make sure the expsosure compensation is set to '0' or increase it to compensate for the dark photos.

Also inaccurately metering a scene (such as a high contrast scene) can easily fool the meter into under exposing, especially outdoors.

Without actually looking at your pictures, I suspect you should have played around with the exposure compensation setting.

then al of you

This is an indication from the camera of "burn out". You have lost all detail in this region of the frame due to the high light levels and the sensor is seeing pure white. This may happen outdoors or when taking a dark subject against a bright background.

my friend ur CCD is getting weak this is the first sign of the problem when u get lines hor and vertcal and sun light pics are blurred and over exposed after that this problem extends to the indoor shots as well pls confirm it thru service centre for 100% ,

pls do rate me i know it is a difficult moment but i helped u in diagnosing ur problem without wasting time

This could be from a couple of things. One is a picture that was taken in bright sunlight that burned the image cell. The other also is an image cell issue not related to sun exposure, Precision Camera Digital Camera Repair Video Camera Repair is a place that I recommend.

try setting your camera's auto balance into Automatic or Outdoor. So the camera could adjust the light or diable flash.

If the LCD screen is too bright or too dark, adjust the LCD Brightness setting in the Setup Menu. If you are shooting photos outdoors in bright light, move the joystick to the icon showing the sun over shaowed area to turn on Outdoor mode and make the LCD screen easier to see in bright light.
