Why white objects becme pink shades while taking pics

That sounds like a T-Con board issue

magenta is just a fancy name for pink.... its usually a darker shade of pink not overly dark but not a bright pink that most associate with the color.
most hp printers use the ckmy color format as opposed to the rgb that most are used to. check your other ink levels to ensure that they are at least half full and when you print out a doc or pic requiring red, the other inks will assist in creating the proper shade

It's a faulty CCD or loose connection between the CCD and main board. Contact your local Sony service center or if they ask too much, feel free to contact me at [email protected]
I work in a Sony service center.

Make sure the white balance is set to "auto." Try going outside into shade and taking a picture of a white piece of paper, and see if that has a color cast.

If it does, follow the instructions in your camera's manual to set up a "custom white balance," and see if that helps. If the camera is newish, Canon might fix it under warranty, too.

sorry to say my friend if all settings are correct and normal as u took pics in past with the same settings

the CCD Imaging chip is gettin faulty it starts like these symptoms first over exposed then pink purple shades and blurry pics , scrathces on pics and then completely off u have to get it replaced thru service centre in ur area but there is a strong chance u can get free repairs from Sony bcoz it is a known problem in various models

they are not over exposed actually they have CCD HR problem ur CCD is having fault as 1000's have the same fault u will get pink shades in white and then later it will stop working u have to arrange for ccd change go to fuji service centre

u cant see it in lcd do u see anything on lcd is it totally blank then its a lcd failure but if it shows signs and functions then it might be a big problem coming ur way that is CCD failure , pls check ur pics by connecting are they normal without any white or pink shades then replace lcd screen

Sounds as though the white balance is off, check your manual on how to alter the white balance to manual - then change it back to auto. It should fix it.

If the pink & white pics are a small percentage of your photos you should probably just live with it. I have 6 cameras in operation for 2 yrs & they have about 10% like this. Great pics otherwise. Probably caused by the angle of the sun or reflection of the flash off a nearby object.

Check the white balance settings. Make sure it is on Auto.
Check the the lens is clean and not covered with pink dust.

If that doesn't solve the problem, post a smaple picture here that you take following these instructions:

1. Choose a scene that has several object (not a blank wall).
2. Place the camera outdoor in daytime on a sturdy surface.
3. Set the self timer and press the shutter button.

This setup should nullify blur caused by camera shake and color distortion of artificial lighting.
