Hi Marco, I had a very similar problem with a Sony Alpha 230 that i bought "working" off of E-Bay. When i tried to take a picture the Super Steady Shot scroll bar kept flashing.

Did a lot of research into the matter & found out that the scroll bar flashing meant that the Super Steady Shot function was not working.

I tried resetting etc but this didn't solve the problem. Apparently the only solution to the problem was to send the camera to Sony for repair & if i remember right i was quoted £180+!

Hopefully i have helped

Kev

Sory for long delay repling but very busy, thanks for you info. looks like I might have to cough up £180, even thought camera just 1yr 8mth old. Not unless someone else knows how or what to do to fix it...

cheers again Kev.

Martin.

Check if your CCD is in the middle if you use cleaning CCD in the menu option.

If so it should be only a warning that the choosen exposure time is too long. Try to use flash. If this will dissapear the warning, the camera should be oke or put the camera on a table free of vibrations if the warning dissapears. Your camera is working fine.

If not bring it out for service
