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...
Hi I bought a secondhand, nearly new Minolta Dimage Scan Elite 5400 a few years ago but never tried to use it until now when I tried to get it to work with my iMac running OSX 10.6.2. I uploaded the Dimage software but I cannot get it to recognise the scanner - any suggestions? Do I need to get updated drivers?
If you purchased your D60 new, you could sent it in to Nikon for cleaning but personally, I'd wait a while if it's not affecting the camera's functions. If you need warranty work within the first year, you can send the camera in for that work, and they'll clean under the LCD while servicing the camera.
This is a fault in the LCD itself. Since you just purchased it, call HP (1.800.hpinvent) and they will fix it for you. Thanks and please remember to rate this solution with a rating of fixya. :c)
If this also shows up on the pictures it could be 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:
I got the same problem back in December of 2006 (9 months ago). Since then, the camara has been on the shelf inside its case.
Of course, I've been thinking about when to send it for repair or just buy a new camera.
Just today, I got in the mail a letter from Monolta informing me of a class action lawsuit involving the DiMage A1 cameras. The problem is related to faulty CCD sensor creating the problem of a distorted image on the LCD and viewfinder.
They will repair it or reimburse any repairs you may have already done or a reimbursement if you bought a new camara as a replacement. Replacements have a limit of up to $206.
Go to http://ca.konicaminolta.com/ccdsettlemen... for more info on the lawsuit. There is also a link to a site to start the repair part.
There is a deadline to apply for the repair which is three years from the time of purchase or March 31, 2008.
