Only half the image apears other half is black

black lines come only when the lcd is damaged due to dropping or jerking. You will have to change the lcd if you wan't to get rid of them. No those won't appear in the printed pictures.

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.

Can you post the model number and also does it appear to be a blueish color that you are seeing? A picture would be great if you can?

HI,

It seems you have a bad ccd imager and requires replacement.

go to your nearest service center and ask for replacement.

thanks.

the lcd screen has to be replaced for this and also need to checked on the main board of the camera that any other minute component on the board is damaged or got broken.

One way out of the glare is to use the optical viewfinder (if your camera has one) to preview your image instead of the LCD. Another possibility is to buy a camera that has a backlit LCD.

LCD board has problem

Most likely, this caused by a stuck shutter. Sometimes the shutter can be freed by rapping (carefully) the camera on a desk or some other hard surface. If this doesn't work, then you will have to take it to a repair shop.

it seems that shutter blades are stucked and are not working. when you say shutter is fully open i think you are talking about the lense cover, not the internal shutter assembly. the red light is the indication of OUT OF FOCUS SUBJECT OR FLASH NOT READY. if the shutter blades aare not open the camera would not be able to do the focusing and will flash the red light thus you would not get any image. contact the repairer.
