Problems taking TIFF photos

I just returned from two weeks in China where I took numerous TIFF photos - only to return and try to view them - and they turned up as green - almost "color photo negative" type coloration. The images also seem to be "cut" on the right - with about 20% of the impage "wrapped" to the left side. The "low res" images look great - but at a MINIMAL megapixel size. 1) Has anyone seen similar issues? 1) Is there any way to view/use the high res images that seem to be defective? 3) Are there settings that I have screwed up which caused this situation? Advice??

There is a known issue with using 2GB SD cards on the FZ20. There are scripts online to assist with getting the images corrected. Here is a link,  http://www.flickr.com/groups/fz20/discuss/72157594149365564/#comment72157594507413493

I have seen similar problem on one of the SD card. Tried another SD card and it works fine with TIFF. I think it is related the the SD card compatibility.

I have this camera, and like you I have taken photos in the Hi-resolution TIFF mode. What you are experiencing is not a camera problem, but a problem with the software you are using to view the pic. Tiff is an odd format that can be configured in different ways and not all viewing software understands all the different configurations. The viewer I use is called Faststone, and can be downloaded for free from the internet- try at www.downloads.com

Faststone displays my FZ20 TIFF files perfectly. They are very big (14Mb) though, and there is little advantage over the jpg if you use the high quality compression setting.

Donwload multiple files from server to client using asp.net
Sir,


//To Get the physical Path of the file(me2.doc)
string filepath = Server.MapPath("me2.doc");

// Create New instance of FileInfo class to get the properties of the file being downloaded
FileInfo myfile = new FileInfo(filepath);

// Checking if file exists
if (myfile.Exists)
{
// Clear the content of the response
Response.ClearContent();

// Add the file name and attachment, which will force the open/cancel/save dialog box to show, to the header
Response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=" + myfile.Name);

// Add the file size into the response header
Response.AddHeader("Content-Length", myfile.Length.ToString());

// Set the ContentType
Response.ContentType = ReturnExtension(myfile.Extension.ToLower());

// Write the file into the response (TransmitFile is for ASP.NET 2.0. In ASP.NET 1.1 you have to use WriteFile instead)
Response.TransmitFile(myfile.FullName);

// End the response
Response.End();
}

private string ReturnExtension(string fileExtension)

Menu Problem
Did you try calling Canon tech support or returning to retailer if the camera is really not functioning properly this soon after purchase, I'd try returning it once all troubleshooting issues have not resolved the issue.

Hope this helps!

Camera slow
you must have changed the option to store the images in .tiff format so while storing in tiff format it compresses the image so it takes time for u ... so i suggest u to change that setting to .jpg uncompressed mode by doing this though it takes more space and allows u to store less photos in memory but it will fast while storing ...
in .tiff format as it compresses the image it takes time but the memory usage will be low this allows u to store more photos...

Problem
If this is the first batch of images then there would appear to be a fault with the Camera or the Card to check it out following the manual- Format the card. Take a test batch of images Try a read back or an upload to computer. This will establish if it is the card or the camera. returner either or both to the seller for replacement
