It's probably just a dirty lens. Run a microfiber cloth on your lens element to clean it.

But just to be sure, I'd reset your camera back to it's factory default settings and download and install any available firmware updates. If that doesn't solve it you may need to contact Panasonic for a repair estimate.

But understand that without warranty coverage the average cost of a camera repair is around $180. As such, it may cost more to repair than it is really worth. The rule of thumb is that if the estimate for repair is north of 50% what you paid for it, you're better off taking that money and buying a newer and upgraded model.

But let's hope it doesn't come to that.
