-   Same problem - Nikon L18 about 2 months old. Will be working fine, then all of a sudden - white horizontal lines across picture and/or pinkish cast to entire picture. Has nothing to do with transferring pix - you can see it on the display too. Tried removing/reinstalling the memory card - temporarily helps, but problem comes back. -   L18 Stinks

-   Same problem - randomly appeared. First noticed on the 'snow' setting one early morning. Thought the pink/grainy effect was a trick of the strange light in the early morning (sunrise). It persisted for a couple of days then righted itself when taking a couple of daylight pictures, again of snow scenes. 3 pictures later, back to pink/grainy. I've tried every setting and all pictures come out pink/grainy. It doesn't affect the pictures sitting in the camera from the summer. I googled this and got a lot of postings on other digitals where the problem was diagnosed as a faulty batch of 'CCD sensors' (think that was it) which the suppliers were fixing for free in 2008. Seems that the only answer was replacement of this part (if I've got its name right)

-   When pointing and shooting, there is a pink discoloration around theLCD screen. The pictures are coming out completely pink, and usuallyblurry. Videos come out clear but have the pink discoloration aroundthe edges. I have adjusted the exposure, color options, white balance,etc. This happened when I first bought the camera, but had correcteditself the next day. Last night I was shooting pictures and they werecoming out fine, and then this issue randomly popped up again between 2pictures I took. I had not adjusted anything in the menus. -   jandb_are_pr

-   The screen shows a pink screen and when the pictures are uploaded to the computer the pink remains.-   chsams
