I have a Canon Power Shot SX420 IS. I somehow punched a horrible selection, or, mode. What I'm getting is a super grainy image on the screen. And the quality of the photos is similar. On the screen I'm seeing an "active" image meaning.... When I hold the camera still it looks like there are pixels bouncing around everywhere like boiling water. I can't figure it out. I think I've seen it before but I don't remember how I got rid of it. I'm at wits end.!! Just for the record I normally shoot in auto mode with the vivid color option. Any help here.?? I love the camera.!!

Hi BirdNPath,

Sounds like a way too high ISO setting to me, did you set it to it's highest value in stead of Auto ?

...€0.02...

kind regards,

Thanks Max. Going into Auto mode has apparently fixed the issue but now it seems I can't be in auto mode and have the option of Vivid Color. I'll click some images and upload them to see what the image quality looks like. Thanks for your help.
