New Kodak M1033 cannot see image on LCD in sunlight
How do you see what picture you are taking when you cant see anything on LCD when taking pictures in sunlight?? New camera. Also internal memory only took about 10 pictures
Re: New Kodak M1033 cannot see image on LCD in sunlight
This is a common problem with all LCD screens without anti-reflective coatings.This is normal. Increase the brightness of LCD while shooting in the sun. Internal memory normally takes only a few images. This is normal. Use a memory card to shoot more images.

Please be noted that your phone memory should show as a drive letter in your explorer, if not, you need to take out your memory card and connect using a card reader, or plug-in to card reader slot if there's any on your computer.
It might be easily fixed. A stuck shutter is another common failure mode for digital cameras. The symptoms of a stuck or "sticky" shutter are very similar to CCD image sensor failure. The camera may take black pictures (for shutter stuck closed), or the pictures may be very bright and overexposed, sometimes with lines, especially when taken outdoors (for shutter stuck open).
To confirm a stuck shutter, put the camera in any mode other than "Auto", and turn the flash OFF (you don't want to blind yourself for the next step). Next look down the lens and take a picture. You should see a tiny flicker in the center of the lens as the shutter opens and closes. If no movement is seen, then you likely have a stuck shutter. If so, please see this link for further info and a simple fix that may help.
Heidi, to delete the pictures on your camera you need to press the review button on your camera, the review button is like an icon of a triangle. Now if you pictur is already displayed on your screen you just need to press the delete button or the trash bin button.
I'm not sure why this works for me, but I think it's worth a try:
1) First, take your SD card out of the camera.
2) Then turn on your camera and let it turn itself off.
3) Read the next step first and be ready to press the shutter release button (take a picture) right after the LCD screen turns on
4) With the camera lens pointed down towards the floor (aim down), turn on the camera. At this point the LCD screen should not be blurry anymore. Immediately press the shutter release after confirming that the LCD is not blurry. If the camera stays on and you can review the picture (most likely of your feet), then you are almost done.
5) Turn off the camera and re-insert your SD card.
5) This may not be a permanent fix, but point the camera lens downward whenever you turn on the camera. It should work normally if you do this. Mine worked normally (meaning I don't have to point it downward when I turn it on) after doing this several times. Your results may vary.
Have you contacted Kodak for warranty coverage? If the LCD is broke due to a camera malfunction and not user error, they will fix it for free. If it's due to being dropped or "user error" they will charge you to fix it. And if you opt to not have it fixed and just sent back to you, it'll cost $35.
Hi There Kyle, At the moment I have my friend's Kodak camera M1033 with me, because it has some minor problems. So Your camera model is quite the same as this one. So coming to your problem, go to the normal Photo mode and press the Menu button. There if you search then you'll find an option 'Image Storage'. Did u find it yet? Good. Now according to your problem, it must have been at 'Internal Memory', so set it to 'Auto' and you're good to go!
