My camera gives fuzzy photos - Vivitar ViviCam 8025 Digital Camera

Have you verified that it is in the picture and not the screen by transferring the photos to your computer?


You way have some dust or lint that got on the lens if the photos have that problem.


Just take an eyeglass cloth and spray wither eyeglass cleaner, or just a little dab of alcohol and then wipe the lens clean.

there is a problum in lense block assy & after replacing this lense assy its work proper so please go to your nearst sony service centre & fix this problum

Try pressing the up/down on the multiselector. Does that change the view? If so, you've just discovered how to cycle through different views of the image.

If that doesn't do anything, then do the menu and info screens come up correctly, or are they also striped or fuzzy? If so, then the camera may need servicing.

about $200 to replace the screen is an average cost


Please rate my help++++Thanks for using FIXYA

have a look at what the focus setting is on ,,,if its on close up's,
thats why there fuzzy, its that or the auto focus is playing up,

Hello MaryRoth,
Photos are fuzzy due to many reasons and the main two reasons are that the subject is out of focus or the subject or the hand shake during the time of taking the snap.
Please make sure that you select appropriate picture modes (Macro, Portrait, Landscape etc..) when taking snaps. Make sure that when you press the click button half-a-way (known as AE mode), the subject is still in focus.
Try using a Tripod stand in case the hand is not steady or try increasing the shutter speed if its an SLR camera. That should help.

Let me know if that works.

are these red fuzzy colors actually on photos or just on lcd i think u r gettin them on photos also if thats the case ur CCD is gettin faulty u cant help it changing the CCD is not recommended bcoz it will cost u like new camera u can buy a new one i think

There is insufficient light indoors, so the camera is selecting a slow shutter speed, which is causing camera shake, hence the 'fuzziness'.

This camera is a perfect one to show the problem with the tiny sensors in the typical point and shoot. From the same sensor size that previously gave 2 or 3 megapixels, Canon now extracts 7.something. In order to do that, they have to turn the gain up so that each pixel actually puts out a signal to be recorded. The natural outcome of that is noise. In this camera, Canon includes heavy noise reduction software that softens the image in order to reduce noise at the various ISO settings above the minimum one, but the result is still a mix of noisy and soft or fuzzy images.

However, the noise should be well controlled at the low end of the ISO settings.

I suspect you have somehow gotten the ISO setting set up higher than the lowest one. Use the four-way controller to access the ISO and set it to the lowest (80) value. This should give you noise free shots.

As an additional suggestion, read the concise review of this camera at Dpreview, the link for which I've provided.

If you have any questions, please let me know before giving this answer a rating and I will provide it. Thanks.

What you have is a CCD issue. The CCD is the part of the camera that captures the images and stores it to the card. When the CCD goes bad it does some pretty funky things, including blurry, fuzzy or other weird things when they go bad.

Here is a link to an eBay auction with a CCD on it.
