Hi Guys!
My name is Sim. I just bought a new Canon A720 IS from a local shop. Last night i went to some flower show at my place. I took a video and found some lines (purple) appearing on the screen due to lights. look @ the screenshots from the video you will get the idea.

Picture 2http://s248.photobucket.com/albums/gg182/simkuriakose/?action=view&current=uvs080211-002.jpg
Eventhough the lines appearing on Picture mode, its doesn't show up when the picture is taken.

But its surely in the video. Is it a problem? Do I need to go back to the shop and ask for a replacement?

Any help would be really appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Regards
Sim K Kuriakose

That's ugly. It looks like a sensor problem to me. I'd definitely take it back and get it fixed or replaced.

Nah I think its normal. This also shows on the live view, right? I remember my A70 would do the same, but that I would not get those weird lines in an actual photo.

In actual photo, I am not seeing these lines. But the trouble is in the video, I am seeing this lines. The pic i have provided is a screen shot from the video i have taken. Everytime i playback the lines are there. So i am a little bit worried over here.

Hey you know, This is my first digital camera. I never used a Digi cam before. I obviously i dont know anything about digital cameras. Thats what i am asking. Please tell me what should i do?

Thank you so much for your responses.
