Hi my Powershot 80 has started giving pictures with a red tinge. Any assistance appreciated ... Bob

Hi.

The tinge pink, often coming with kind of streaky shadows of blur means that you have a defective CCD sensor.The CCD sensor is the image sensor located directly behind the optics. The pink color is typical effect of this fault.

There were recalls issued for several models. I don't think the S220 was included in the recall, but give it a try calling the Nikon support number listed in the camera manual (Canon and Nikon stopped recalling and refunding for this problem in 1998).
Ask Nikon details on repair procedure. You can also get a quote from a third party repair here: Repair.

hi there

It seems the HT Transformer (High Voltage) transformer is unable to supply the desired voltage to the picture tube. It was probably ebbing giving rise to the the red tinge earlier when starting up but easing up as the tube got heated up, however now the voltage has really dropped. Since the tube works by displaying a combination of RGB(red, green & blue) to make up the complete spectrum of displayed colors either the HT transformer &/OR the tube needs to be changed.

your settings are wrong on the brightness and contrast

some of the power shots set up by using KELVINS as the method of balancing the warmth or coolness of a picture. Others have a setting for OUTSIDE Inside Halogen and fluro If its set on halogen and you are taking pics outside it will have a red tinge.

Fluro a blue tinge...

check the manual for the right selections

hi have you tried replacing the lvds panel you may find that q300 has died

Not tuner........Did you check RGB screen adjust up front
behind access panel?.....Possible CRT issue.............T.

Could you see your pictures on camera's screen? Did you changed your computer's operation system? Try to see your pictures on your computer while using a card reader. Let me know if you will need for any further assistance. Good luck!

This is in all probabilty a CCD or processor fault A repair shop jub- unless you have some warranty left Try the Canon Tech support team first though.

When you say produce a pink tinge do you mean on the view screen on the back or through the viewfinder or on prints or an the computer screen? go into more detail if you please
