Hello guys. Newbie to this forum.
Got myself a used S230 - worked perfectly for couple of weeks. Then, after just being on a table (battery was in) for a week or so, not dropped or anything just unused - kept on giving me pinkish blurry pictures with horizontal lines on a picture. Like so:

First, i thought that something happened to the LCD but the previous pictures appeared normal on a preview mode on a camera. But when the shooting and filming modes are the same blur... Don’t know what to do.., any suggestions? Please help.
Thanx

Thanks a lot Jon! They (canon) will be emailing the shipping label now. The rep did not even ask me any questions about the camera, when i said that Im calling about "CCD Image Sensor Advisory" ;)
I should've found your forum a long time ago.., oh well...
I was gonna sell the camera for scrap but now I feel it still could be back up agin :)
