My camera will not take pictures. The screen is lit with no image. How do I fix it?

About 120 days ago (right after the 90 day warranty was up) my camera would take a picture and half was the image I took and half was black. It was the spring. I am concerned to put more money into it if it will only last 120 days. PLEASE HELP! It is volleyball season!!

I could be a number of things that are wrong. Did it get dropped or some sand in it from those energetic volleyball practices?

I could be a connectivity issue if it were dropped such as wires are out of place. It could also be a software issue. It doesn't sound like it is something you can fix with out servicing. Bummer.

Mine did this. Sometimes I'd get half a black screen, other times a completely black screen. And the shutter seemed to be moving in slow motion. Turned out to be the shutter pin bent.
