Bright pink/red color

I am having a major issue with my Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-F717 digital camera. When I turn on my camera and use it outdoors the lcd and viewfinder show only a bright pink/red color. While indoors images are somewhat visible but the pink/red is still there. When downloading photos they look just like they did when taking the photos. I wish I could explain all of this better. Thanks for your help.
