Too dark or too right pictures

You need to change the white balance to tungsten lighting.

Click Menu
go to setup
then go to setup 1
and go to initialize
then click ok and then ok again
put in the right date and time then
click ok
That should fix your problem! ;)

Hi dbyinva

I have not yet heard of yellow pictures on the DSC-W70 and I know this camera very well.

It might be that you have a white-balance impurity problem causing the yellow glow?

Try to reset the software back to factory settings:

1. Put the camera selection knob to the `green` camera.
Now press the `menu` button.
Use the right arrow to move all the way to the little toolbox picture.
Once in the setup menu, use the arrow pointing down to move to the little toolbox with a `1`
Now press the right arrow again and then the right arrow when you have highlighted `Initialize`
Now press the `middle` button on the arrow control keys.
Camera wants to know are you sure - select OK again.
You will now have to input the date and time again.

Check to see if the photos come out correctly now.

If not.... it might be a faulty CCD unit and you will have to contact Sony for service information

Good luck

Use an external card reader that supports memory stick pro duo

it more than likely took a fall or impact. since its lens just floats on flexes one is probably out of position

Flash Circuit has problem and have to be replaced for normal camera function. Ask Sony to provide you " A-1182-558-A ST-133 BOARD, COMPLETE " and replace it.

try cleaning the lens first.

when taking the picture press down lightly so it will focus. Then press harder for the picture.

Hi

Your camera has a bad CCD, and I think Sony might still be fixing them for free under recall. Here is the info you need:

No service forms or mailing addresses are provided on the Sony US site. Rather, owners are instructed to contact the Sony Customer Information Services Center for further assistance at 1-866-703-7669.

Good luck from Darntoothysam com

I have the same problem at my church with the indoor lighting on my camera. I'm able to get it work by putting the whole thing on manual and adjusting the lighting settings that way.

the backlight for the lcd has blown, it is reparable but more likely the whole lcd will need replacing.
