My olympus u820 started to have problems capturing photographs. While browsing the camera menus the image is fine, but once in photograph mode, the image on the screen appears with running stripes, distortions and mixed colours with an effect like if looking through a rainbow. I can not find a pattern in those distortions though. Every picture has different stripes, colour mixtures and form distortions. Once taken, the picture has the same distortions that appear on the camera screen at the moment it was taken. The camera has not fallen and I have no idea what is wrong or how to fix this. Sometimes after off for a while, the first pictures are ok and then gradually the distortions start becoming worse, as more pictures are taken. Have already done reset to cameras preferences and it did nothing. Hope you can help me. Thanks
One answer time for a new camera the cost to repair is about the same as new.

This is a CCD problem.
It is possible that free replacement could on the card as there has been a recall on certain cameras of all makes in the past because of a faulty batch of these components used commonly.
Contact Olympus with the problem - you may get lucky

remove the card and see if you still have the same problem... if so then repair. if not then it is the card
