My Canon IXUS 430 has been excellent for the past 4 years, delivering perfect shots with excellent picture quality and clarity. Unfortunately, it has just developed this fault where all my pictures have a pink border across the top or white objects apear pink. Is this a known fault or do you think it may just be old age. I have taken thousands of pictures with the camera and I am 1 month away from completing a 12 month world trip. If there is anyway of rectifying this with sending it for repair I would be most grateful.

Thank you very much for the quick reply. I fillowed the links and it seems that this is a known fault with my camera model and many others. However, Canon are recognising this and carrying out free repairs.
