I have an Olympus SP560UZ. While taking pictures some of them are of good quality while at times others have horizontal lines across them. The lines make it impossible to actually view the picture. It happens while using the automatic as well as the P mode.
 
A few things come to mind. The easiest thing to try is using a different SD card.

1. Too high an ISO setting combined with low light conditions.

2. Malfunctioning digital sensor. This will need factory repair.

3. Try updating the firmware. This is often overlooked by users. Just like computers, cameras too sometimes need updates.
