Question about Canon PowerShot S60 Digital Camera

Troubleshooting problems I have a canon powershot s60. I tried to take a picture earlier and the screen is completely white. The camera turns on, the battery is fully charged and there is nothing wrong with the digital card. THe camera wasn't dropped nor did it get wet. I keep trying to turn it off and on, but all I get is a white screen. No images. But there are 900 images on the camera card and i just used it this morning. Please help. Thanks, Shannon

I also own an S60 with the same white screen issue. This started just the other day. I can take photos and download them fine, I just can't see anything on the LCD screen, just white. The camera has been dropped a few times, but has always worked and these drops occurred some years ago. I have changed the Compact Flash, pushed all the buttons, still a white screen.

Identical problem here on my S60 and yes the pictures download fine - so in all other respects the camera is working, so unfortunately Toonz remedy refers to a different problem and the camera doesn't seem to be recognised as having a problem by canon.

Your image sensor might be faulty. It is what connects your LCD and the picture in the issue of the horizontal lines. have it checked. Try checking your aperture too.
