LCD screen shows weird colours (by 9 users)

When I try to take a picture, on the LCD disply there are horizontal lines and the image is white-gray. The camera is Canon PowerShot A75.

I recently had the same problem with my z612 including horizontal lines on screen and very white images. I was able to fix the problem however it took 12 hours and a lot of frustration. The problem started when my 1 year old pulled the camera off the table onto hardwood floor. It had no apparent damage but took bad pictures. The problem was in the f-stop apeture and shutter. Both are made of small plastic flaps that open and close. A small disc with 6 slots rotates to move the 6 f-stop flaps. A solenoid actuates the 4 shutter flaps. If you shine a light into the lens and look in you will see that the shutter does not open/close properly or that the f-stop opening is no longer approx round. This happens when the plastic flaps fall out of position due to impact. This can be fixed but requires most of the camera to be disassembled to get to these delicate parts. It is very difficult to reassemble the lense assembly which includes the zoom lense, the image stabilizer, and the shutter assembly all of which ride on different cam tracks within two concentric plastic tubes. I do NOT recommend repairing this yourself unless you are crazy like me. Better off to buy a new one.

Distorted lines and unnatural colours on the lcd screen, same with image when photo is taken. I put the camera back to default settings, made no difference. Had a camera shop check the lense with laser and it is fine. Shop suggested sending it back to agent to have it reformated?

Have the same problem with my Fuji S5000---bleeding lines of green yellow on the image --the LCD s and memory are fine because they show excellent images to previous photos and to the boot data.How do you replace the CCD ? Where does one get a new one ??

I dropped mine on hard cement and when i brought the camera upon light i can see the distortion, like veritcal lines and its like half and half...i mean when i upload the pic to the computer you can see it but...when i turn it on and take pictures i can see distortions like blurry and stuff...i dont know what to do...i cant take back to the store i bought it cuz i lost my receipt and threw the box out...this sucks!
