This is the photo taken by my Canon A420 recently.
The colours is "runaway" !
This camera is just 1yr + 3months; it's running out from it's warranty period!
I'm guessing the sensor is going wrong in my camera.

1. Anyone know what is the real factor that make this error?
2. Anyone know how much is the price to repair it?

Thank you!

i guess just bury ur camera. joking2. maybe a software update should do it.

Now camera so cheap. I think buy new one better . Another good excuse to keep on buying new camera...muahaha

only 1yr + 3months, if you are smart canon will repair for you for free.

can i send it to Canon shop instead of Canon Service Center in Shah Alam?

you ask bysquashy where he sent his camera to.
he dropped his canon damaged the lens, he nego with them and they fix it all for free.

is it a CCD problem?

Did you accidently use one of the presets?
As I know, you can get that with your handphone cameras after selecting the "effect".

I don think its a software/effect problem.
I was reset my camera for few times, but it shows me the same result.
Sometimes, I can get a normal shot (but still have some vertical lines on the photo) out of 10 shots.

Just send to Canon in Shah Alam lah. If it's their fault, they'll replace it FOC.
If not, they should tell u the price needed for repair. If it's too expensive, then just buy a new camera.

Don't bother to send to Canon shop coz they'll just send it to the Shah Alam HQ and charge you runner fees.

Pyton: My problem wasn't like that...yours looks like Venom(of Spiderman 3 fame) got into ur camera...gulp...

Yes, send back to Canon. They will repair or replace for you FOC

???canon people so good kah? that guy drop the cam go repair somemore everything free...

Hi there! Canon service centre is damn good IMHO. Sent my 5yr old Ixus V3 a week ago for 'no pic from CCD'. They repaired it FOC in 2 working days. SO yeah...hope it works out for you.

yup. same answer here.. all point same direction. go subang airpot. its before the airport. follow big red roadsign

canon good? they delay my freebies when i purchase my camera
already 1month+++ still not yet come....
the shop dealer said canon didnt give them the freebies, have to wait for canon to give them

most of the time its the shop dealer that don't bother about getting it from Canon

What a coincidence. My Powershot A510 also died after 1year, 3 months of usage! Cannot be powered-up. The quality control of Canon is getting a bit suspect...

went to a shop just now. they said its the processor problem. too bad...

processor problem is also not acceptable, you write call canon and f*** them, this is not wear and tear cleary this is low quality or flawed design, if you are good at f**king them they will change it for you for free.

okies, i hv to train my f* *king skills and try to get FOC service / repair from Canon.

i hv the same thinking as urs; processor problem is not acceptable.
the camera is just 1yr + 3 months only, and i just take 5k shots...

* unless they purposely design their processor to works for 5k shots.
