How do I get rid of the orange light which goes on whenever camera is on?.

The round "rocker switch" on the rear gives options for disabling features. Press the edge (left or right) and you'll see various icons onscreen with the option to disable (...best I recall, pressing left side disables & right side resets?). Play around with that control a bit & you'll see what I mean. The system defaults when you turn the camera off, so you can't screw anything up by "experimenting";-). Hope that helps!

Not sure what orange light you are talking about. There is an orange light that comes with the flash that is used to mitigate red eye but not sure if that is what you mean. Please clarify.Edit: Perhaps page 22 could yield some clues: http://gdlp01.c-wss.com/gds/0/0900001430/02/PSSD600IXUS60CUGad-EN.pdf

Suggest going to canon.com and just reading the manual... seems to be at this link: http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/support/consumer/digital_cameras/powershot_sd_series/powershot_sd600#BrochuresAndManuals Otherwise, go to 'Service and Support' and type in PowerShot SD600. Good luck.

Yes, turning the camera on/off is not working right.First delivered one was bad and the replaced one is also the same bad condition which is very frustrating. This camera is a junk. I wasted my money for it. I do not use this camera any more.If it is possible for you, I would like to return the camera to you for refund.Hiro Inoue

Orange light = charging. When you take it off charger, place on skin and light comes on. If not, press button for green light to appear then place on skin.

I don't have an answer, but I would like one also. Mine has started doing the same thing a few months ago. I bought this camera less than 10 months ago. So who do we contact for answers ?

I never had that problem. You might want to check the battery, or settings on your camera.

I couldn't remember so I charged a battery and the orange light is on while charging, then changes to green when charged...I have around 6 different chargers for different cameras, so I had to try this one out to get the right answer, hope it helps..

I would go with the other comment by EDay. I usually have found if my camera is not performing a certain function it is probably a setting has accidently been changed. Sometimes an employee at a local camera shop can help you out-they like to show al they know. Good Luck!

You've got to keep some light off of the screen or possibly tilt the screen and hold the camera higher. This is a normal probelm with most digital LCD or LED screens.

You should select "smart mode" first. You may do that by turning the knob on top of the camera to the black rectangle with a white "s" in the middle. You should then see a menu on the screen for various lighting situations. Select "Low Light Shot" from the menu, and remember to hold the camera steady during the shot. In this mode, you'll hear four clicks in rapid succession, and then the camera will process the shot. I hope this has helped.

Not too sure why this happens. Never experience this. The only reason that I can think off is when it gets dark the images are displayed by the infra red, night vision properties of the camera.

This could also be a ground loop- this is more common with audio connections. Try moving your ground wire to a different source. The issue is probably because the camera and the screen have different ground connections, which is basically unavoidable but you can fix it by experimenting with different power and ground sources. Or, you could buy something called a "ground loop isolator", but in my experience those usually only partially fix the problem. Good luck!

I have been trying to do that same thing. Some scenes get messed up by the auto-exposure. A couple steps down in the settings you can change how bright or dark the picture is but that pesky auto-exposure is still active. Let's hope if they ever put up another firmware update that they include that functionality like when they added the timer function.

There should be a switch on the cord with an on/off button. Or try turning the lens.
