Pictures are shades of solid purple

There is a recall on these cameras - I have one also. It is a faulty image sensor. All you get is black or purple with lines in the image in the screen. For more info, check out the other reports on this blog and the Canon website.Canon will repair it for free whether its still under warranty or not, and they will pay for shipping both ways. They fixed mine and I have had it since 2003!

Hello!

Unfortunately it sounds like you have a bad CCD on your A75. You can try calling Canon to see if it is under the CCD recall. The recall is over, but Canon allegedly has still been accepting customer's cameras for the recall.

Good luck!

Here is a link that should explain what is going on. The same thing just happened to my a75 and I'm hoping to send it to Canon this week.

Ok, let me try it one more time,

http://camerarepair.blogspot.com/2007/11...

Here is the link to the camera repair blog. The links to Canon are in the article. Just FYI, I called Canon, they immediately recognized the problem and within a day I had a UPS shipping label. My a75 is now in Illinois awaiting repair. Hope you have the same luck. Good luck, Greg (gt2003)
