I have a DSLR Sony A350. Blank "Live View" Screen

I have a DSLR Sony A350. When I turn it on the "Live View" screen does not go on. Why?

  • jambor_paul Dec 11, 2009

    I should have articulated that I did that. Also, all the other screen options work (ISO, Fn, Menu, etc.) It's just when you first turn on the camera on it use to show all the basic settings and ratings like battery strength etc. Now when I turn the camera on the screen remains blank. Your thoughts?

There is a switch on top of the unit right of the flash that says Live View / OVF. This must be set to Live View to use the LCD for taking pictures.

    There is also a battery saver function. It shuts the screen off after 30 seconds or so of inactivity. Does it come one after you snap a pic?

    Also you could try this.


        Remove memory card.

        remove batteries.

        Replace with fresh batteries after a minute of sitting.

        If you don't have new batteries you can try the old ones.

        Turn it on and see if the problem still occurs.
    I would defiantly use new batteries because that could be a factor.

    Also please tell me everything you have already tried.

I have a Sony DSLR A-300 and the lcd screen on the back of the camera goes white when I take pictures. How to fix this?

The camera has live-view, so is the LCD always white? Can you play back old pictures or view menus properly? Do your pictures turn out white or are they ok?

If it's always white and you can't see anything, you need the LCD replaced or the cable going from the main PCB to the LCD replaced. 99% likely the LCD, not the cable.

If you can playback old pictures and view menus... but NEW pictures turn out white then it's not a problem with the LCD screen at all, it's the CMOS or something else.

Without knowing more detail it's hard to say exactly what's wrong, but it definitely sounds like the camera needs repair.

I have a Sony A300. When I turn on the live view screen, I only see a bunch of vertical lines on the screen and cannot see anything that I try to display (ie. menu, display, prior photo's, or the...

Sorry to say your LCD screen is cracked, it happens a lot with the Sony DSLR-A300 and A350. The solution is to remove the cracked LCD and replace it with a new one. The repair isn't that difficult, but you have to be careful removing the LCD or you will break a latch holds two FPC cables together and then will have to replace yet another part that takes MUCH more labor.

I did a Google search for "sony a300 lcd repair" and at #2 I saw an online digital camera repair shop that has done tons of this repair over the last few years.

Hope this helps!

My nikon d40 is not showing live screen view nor i

I realize these aren't the answers you wanted to see, but the D40 does not have any live view capability, nor does it shoot video. Nikon intended the D40 as an entry-level dSLR, with a minimal feature set. In fact, they didn't introduce the video until the D90, introduced more than two years after the D40. The least-expensive Nikon dSLR with both of these capabilities is the D5000.

Sony a350 lcd consumer replacable?

Hi,

I am sorry to hear regarding this Problem. If you are good at Repairing electronics, you could Fix that. But, the Main Problem is LCD Screen. Sony Does not allow the Screen to be Sold Separately and they would charge around $125 - $150 to get the Screen Fixed.

Let me know, if needed further assistance.

Hope i helped you.

Thanks for using ' Fixya ' and have a nice day!!
