When I power it up, I get all the white icons around the outside, then they turn off and the screen is black. In playback, the picture is fine. However, no image shows on the LCD when trying to take a photo.. just black screen.
The camera worked fine yesterday but today it just started doing this. We didn't drop it. My husband wonders if he somehow changed a setting without knowing.. but I couldn't find anything.
The display being white can be due to failure of the LCD or the CCD which is the optical sensor of the camera. So to confirm check the older picture to be seen on the display. Confirm this by checking the card on your PC. If the display is not seen, then the LCD can be faulty, fault on the linking cable or the control board.
However if the older images are seen well then the LCD is working correctly and the fault can be failure of the CCD- charge coupled device in the camera. If you have accidently exposed the camera directly to high intensity light / sunlight, then it is possible that it is damaged. Remove the battery and keep the phone aside to reset and try as a last resort. Get estimate before you decide. It will be good to have it checked at the authorised service as you do not have to run around for spares.
