Vertical white lines on LCD.

What is wrong with my Samsung NX11 camera as vertical white lines have appeared on the LCD screen.

The screen has a serious fault in the control circuits. Prepare for it to die completely soon.

Does the viewfinder show the same fault?

Ok.  Viewfinder and rear panel have the same feed from the sensor. There is a fault in the circuitry somewhere. I've seen this once where the camera has been dropped. NX11's are dirt cheap at the moment so I'd suggest investing in another body before this one dies?

Thanks for your good sound comments.

It is a good camera and I would be lost without it and so it looks like I will be getting another one very soon.

They are excellent cameras. IMHO better thought out / designed than some of the later NX range. My NX11's are quicker image producers than my NX20's.
