Help! My GF1 is messed up!

[psyiko]

So I just bought a GF1 off of Amazon and it was working fine for awhile, but then I took it outside in bright sunlight and I noticed that the LCD went almost completely grey with the slightest hint of the image. When I brought it back inside I had to turn it off and on a bunch of times to make it go back to normal. But now I just took it back outside and I took a picture of my sister and this is what it came out as:

I've taken several pictures now and they are all black and white with a specific shade of red as the only color. Sometimes the LCD turns back into normal color again but then when I take the picture it saves it in that weird black and white and the LCD goes back to that black and white and red again. I know it's not a problem with the LCD because if I go back in my card to pictures I took this morning, it is in normal color. Please help me! I bought this camera for a big vacation and I'm leaving on Friday!

Buy another one.

Cool effect though... 😀

Call the vendor and/or the manufacturer.

You need to get a replacement. If you can't achieve this by Friday you'll need to lodge your complaint with Amazon (to be dealt with when you return) and take another camera. This one is stuffed!
