The camera worked perfect till this morning all of a sudden the screen turned streaky- can't see anything but streaks. Any ideas?
It depends. are the streaks from the picture, or are they on on the inside or out side of the screen of the outer screen. if its out side use vinegar and newspaper, if its inside like *** smoke (brown stains in streaks) you might be able to take the front off if your lucky! and clean it. They make it hard so you can't do this so you have to buy a new one. They can make them to last a life time now, but how would they make a profit then. top tip buy with your credit card and do not buy extended warenty,(in shop) your card covers this and you can get it for 50% less on line after. pluss you have loads of time to take it back, refund garentied with the new laws. I think 14 days, not sure?

You have a defective CCD. If it's not under warranty, the it's gone, unless you purchase another equal camera with, let's say, a ruined zoom lens and swap the CCDs. But it is quite a bit of microsurgery.

the screen is mostly back except for top right corner where you can faintly see an image- the rest of the screen has white lines through it
Sorry mate your screen is F****D. Is it new?, Has it been Damaged ? Can you get recomp. These things are not built to last any more. they do this to make a living remember. Hope you paid by credit card. If not ask your mam or friends for a old one. They are a lot easier to mend by your self and will last a hell of a lot longer. Have a mess about. its worth it.
thanks for your help-guess I will need to replace the screen
