My DiMAGE A1 bought on 2003 has the same pink screen problem few months ago. It is collecting dust on the shelve now. Who ever going to buy a new dig camera should think twice before getting MINLTA!

Sounds like the light engine is going...costs as much as a whole new set. May have to get a service man to have a quick look at it to be sure. Scrap the set if it is the light engine and buy an LCD or Plasma. They won't last as long as this set did...
I seem to remember seeing something about this and I think it was on youtube, though at only 6 months old it should still be covered by the warranty and should be returned to the retailer for repair or replacement and no attempt made to repair it or fiddle around with it.
Tiny particles of dust on the light engine lens can cause this (and was a service call for me about a month ago), or possibly the expensive light engine.
This sounds like a defective Sony CCD issue. If so, Sony will fix your Minolta camera for free (with free shipping) regardless of warranty. You need to do this before March 31, 2008 so get going! See this link: http://esupport.sony.com/US/perl/news-item.pl?template_id=1&news_id=131#
