I noticed 2 slightly black spots on the display of my camera, about 1/4 inch in diameter. I think if's just beneath the protective glass screen. It's still there on view image mode, on shooting mode ,on videoing mode and on menu display. The spot does not enlarge when I zoom in on viewing and shooting mode. What causes this and whats the solution?
I also have a brand new canon powershot sd750, with the SAME PROBLEM!! what IS THIS?!?
In my experience dark spots on 3.0in displays are common faults on Canon SD models. The problem occurs with age in the LCD layer and no amount of cleaning can solve this quality control problem.

I got this as a gift (sd750) and I have exactly the same problem. They look like two dark areas almost in the middle of the screen but slightly towards the bottom. They look like two small bruises with no defined egde but I have not knocked the screen at all.
Theydont show up on the actual photos so its not something on the lens and they dont change size. When you turn the camera off as the backlight turns off they are still there.
me too!
i have a SD870 that now has it and ive been searching for answers all over and havent found out anything either. bah.
i thought it may have been moisture so i took a hair dryer to it and it actually helped it as well as moved it out of the center and into the top corner.
its about half the size now and a few horizontal rows of pixels below the larger spot. they are grayish in color and semi translucent with small patches of pink and green ones around its edges. as i was shooting it with the hair dryer (for quite a while) some vanished and others changed colors.
its now been two weeks since its happened and they havent changed.
