Outdoor picture is all white

When I try to take pictures out the window, everything is white, like it is drastically over-exposed. If I pick it up and point it into the room, it is fine. Out the window, all white. Can someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong?

I found the same problem. I was able to solve it by adjusting settings as follows: Go into 'Camera Settings' - top right blue button in video view. You need the 'Camera Setup' tab. Click 'Source' button. Click 'Advanced Settings' tab. 'Banding filter' - check 'Outdoor'. 'OK' your way out.

Outdoor pictures are completely over-exposed. Local expert unable to reset. Some indoor pictures slightly washed out.

Try setting ISO value to 100. If this does not work, return it to the retailer.

Taking indoors pictures makes no problem, but when I take pictures outside or outdoor specially during daytime the taken picture some kind of over brightness or like exposed it turns everything bright

Be sure you are using an auto mode. Have the white balance set to "auto wb"...the ISO to "auto ISO" or somewhere between 100 to 400.

Canon Powershot A460 gets overexposed pictures with almost white image and sometimes white streaks especially daytime and outdoor though video take is okey.

Change the exposure/ISO through settings.
This is the cause for over exposed images.

Pictures Becomes white (Excess Exposer or ISO)

I'm not clear about your last sentence. It sounds like you may have accidentally set the camera to use exposure compensation to over-expose the images. To reset this, see page 27 in your user manual. If you don't have the user manual you can download it here from Kodak. If you said in your last sentence that this is not the case, I apologize for not understanding you clearly.

If this is not the case, then the light meter in the camera may be malfunctioning, telling the camera that it doesn't have enough light.

1) Make sure the light sensor is clean. This is the lower of the 2 small light buttons on the front of the camera, to the left of the lens as you face the camera. If that doesn't help try:

2) Use a - setting in Exposure Compensation to under expose the images to compensate for the damaged light meter.

If neither of these help, then it needs to be sent in for repair, or replaced. (If the camera is out of warranty it is likely that the repair cost will exceed the value of the camera and you should simply buy a new camera.)
