My camera is Canon IXUS 960 IS. My problem is, I find the left side of the photo blurred compared from right up to the middle of the picture taken. Its blurrdness is very visible when u upload it in the computer....pls help me what to do

Sounds like a stupid question, but, if the camera is operating correctly in all other ways, have you checked to make sure that you didn't smudge the lens at some point?

you should try some photo recovery software, here are some programs you may rely on. Both programs can also recover videos and music.

Photo Recovery Software (for Windows)
Mac Photo Recovery Software (for Mac OS X)

Note: Before your pictures are recovered, do not attempt to save more files to the camera memory card in case the original files(your pictures) are overwritten.

Hi, You have an defective lensunit it must be replaced by your Canon repaircenter.
If yo can do it by yourself to repair Rotronica in the Netherlands will sell you a new zoomunit.

Try pressing "DISP." which is the small button on the bottom left under the thumb-wheel. That turns on or off the LCD in shooting mode. In Playback mode, it shows shooting information etc.

That means that lens are either misplaced or dirty inside.

The lens assembly must be taken apart at a repair shop to fix this problem.

Check to see that the camera is not in "macro" mode, which would only allow focusing at a close range, but not allow focusing at beyond about 2 meters (look for the "flower" symbol to tell you that macro is activated). Could also be an out of adjustment lens, due to impact or force. Also check to make sure it's not as simple as a dirty lens. Digital cameras are more succeptable to blurry pictures from a smudged lens than film cameras were. Of course, that wouldn't explain why close shots are OK but distant ones aren't. Probably the first two suggestions.

turn on your camera.
look at the screen on the back.
press the "DISP" button until you see a picture with writing and information,in right hand corner of the screen there is a battery icon along with others , if its full so is the battery

I found the same fault, but for me it is intermittent. I have tried all sorts of things to clear it, but the best seems to be leave it turned off for a while. I bought my Ixus 400 in Sept 03 and the fault started in Jun 07. It shows already taken pictures with no problem on review on the LED screen, but the screen blurs (with motion) and records that same blurred image.

Well you may be right or yet another dud screen Canon support will advise - but as it has been repaired previously- it may be time to replace it

The card controls the photos options probobly has gotten wet if you know how to open the cam and dry it up then it will probobly help. (by the way if the cam is under warrenty the best solution is to get it fixed by a technition).
