Patterns and untrue color on photos

I see OK picture on LCD display before taking a photo, so I take one. When reviewing photo that was taken, I can see on LCD display photo with patterns that are repeated from top to bottom and colors that are somewhere between sepia and color technique.

Set Date and Time Display to FinePix T410 Camera
The date and time appear in the lower-left corner of the screen, both when taking pictures and when reviewing pictures you've already taken.

The date and time (and a lot more) are stored with every picture in its EXIF metadata. Any photo viewing/editing program should be able to display this data. To print this data, please consult the documentation for whatever program you're using to print your pictures. Depending on the program and printer you may print the date on the image, in the margins, or on the back.

Cant view photos on the big screen of my camera
I think you must have pressed the EVF/LCD button which changes the review area to inside the tiny view finder.. the EVF/LCD button is found on the back of the camera at the top left hand corner.. it is a little silver button. Hope that helps.. :)

LCD Screen does not work properly
Your camera works just like a film camera SLR,. You use the eyepiece to frame and focus your picture. The LCD screen is for reviewing pictures taken or menu operations. You cannot preview a shot on screen before it is taken with the camera.

Can't switch from photo taking to photo review
Assuming your LCD still works, go to the camera settings and reset the entire camera to the default factory settings. This will help you determine if it is a hardware or software problem. If you are still unable to get into the photo review, you may have a hardware problem.

I don't see anything in the color LCD.
If the color LCD is not illuminated when the camera power is turned on, check the following: * The camera may be in the wrong mode. Run this check to test the LCD: 1. Make sure the camera power is on (the lens cover should be open). 2. Press the Review button (top left) on the back of the camera. The LCD will display the last photo taken. To exit the Play mode, turn the camera power off. * The camera may be connected to a TV. Disconnect the camera from the TV and try the LCD again. * The batteries may be weak. Replace the batteries or use the AC adapter. To save battery power, use the optical viewfinder when composing photos.
