I've had this camera for a few years and have never really used it seriously so I don't know how new this problem is. Anyway, I took a lot of photos in bright sun at the seaside recently. When viewed on the camera they look stunning, the colours are vivid. However, when I load them onto my PC and view them in Windows Live Photo Gallery in Windows 7 they look flat and washed out. Is this a compatibility problem? Is there anything that can be done? Any advice would be appreciated as I like the camera and would like to keep it. Many thank, John
Try a different photo viewer other than windows photo gallery and see what the results are.
many thank for the suggestion Russell, I've now tried every other photoviwer I could find and the results were still all about the same. I also dug out my old Apple iBook and tried on there but that was no better.A suggestion from another forum where I posted was that camera manufacturers are making LCDs featuring a lot of brightness, contrast and vivid colours so they are easier to see in bright light - which was always a complaint about them in their early days. 'fair comment. The only way I've managed to display the images, unaltered, so that they appear as bright is on a friends Kindle Fire HD whose screen probably has the same qualities as a cameras LCD for the same reasons. My thoughts are now going down the road of PPing the photos in batches if I can find suitable software (I know it can be done in Photoshop if the images are in RAW) Best Wishes,John

I was thinking along the lines of some kind of fungus if you were in a warm, humid climate.
