IXUS Overexposed images

brendanplay — Sat, 17 Dec 2022 13:23:48 GMT

I recently was cleaning my cabinet when I found my old Cannon IXUS camera. I decided to take a photo with it at first when I was shooting the photo nothing was wrong but when I check the image it was overexposed. The image was very bright, whatever picture I took was all white I tried to rest the settings to default I even tried to decrease the brightness to the lowest but nothing working still the same result. Cannon community can I please get some help?

There are many versions of the IXUS model line, but here is a screenshot of a typical model.

Look for a menu page on the camera similar to this and reset camera settings to factory values to see if that helps.

i have the same problem as of just now and sadly this didn’t work, for me it’s all images that are more zoomed in

Sounds like a lens problem. It is probably time to retire it.
