tyr to factory reset device on advance settings
with out the memory card

check the settings and yes you may have a bad card. try a new card, take a few pics and verify your camera settings as well.

A chip died in the LCD screen. Definitly take it back or contact the manufacturer for a warranty replacement.

Hi,
I hope your TV model is Sony KV-G21M1 and you see color bars as horizontal lines across the screen.
Let me now are you tech guy or know how to repair TV to guide you further.

That is actually the exact same thing I am experiencing but mine has grey lines on the display window. I was able to take photos to a grey screen connect it to my comp...low and behold my pics showed....I am furious....need some answers as I will never hear the end of it from my daughter.

Grrrrr

I have the same problem, and upon looking into my problem, i recall reading that Sony had used crappy glue in which they attached the CCD to the inner guts of the camera, and when that deteriorates, which doesn't take very long, then your pictures will have lines through them.

I think i remember reading that Sony said they will replace all cameras within 2 years of their manufacture. Call Sony's troubleshooting and support and they may replace it for you.

Hope i helped solve your problem.

bad vertical chip ic

if these lines are just at the top of the picture then i would suspect an electrolytic capacitor in the vertical circuit.

Try this to isolate the problem.
Switch on the camera in auto and put it into full optical zoom. Now turn the camera to face you and angle it so that you can see into the lens without reflection. On full zoom the internal lens will be right up to the outer lens. Now press the button to take a picture. You should be able to see the shutter cover the inside lens and then open again. Did it completely cover the lens? It should do. If not then you will get an over exposed picture or a picture with lines across it.
