girlfriend was using it earlier and it was fine, I have a few photos from earlier in the day and its not distorted at any level as that, any ideas?

also, the camera screen is showing everything in a pink hue.

edit: it's a general electric (GE), model unknown, 2010/11 model

Faulty sensor? Also if the screen is messed up, maybe the camera took a hit or got wet?

Well, she said she never dropped it or got it wet, bit bottom line just seems to be that its completely broke

Yep. That's a bad sensor alright.

Usually get that from water damage that kind of smudgy effect.

The lines are from just failing electronics.
