Sony NEX / SELP1650, vertical (red) line/stripe on an image

Thoriumi — Fri, 13 Sep 2013 14:02:17 GMT

There is a vertical about 1 pixel (red) line/stripe on an image on my Sony NEX camera image.

Position is about 2/3 on the right, through the whole image.

It is in the same place in every image, strenght varies. This is annoying, usually image is ruined!

Here is a sample:

What is this? Is my camera broken or is this a bug in all the cameras?

This can also be a lens problem: it seems that the same line is there in the camera display and it moves a bit when I adjust the zoom.

just to discount the lens, can you take the lens off and take a shot to see if the line is still there?

if it won't fire with out the lens on, check the menu , and there should an item in there for release without lens.

If you take a shot without the lens (it should be just a misty lightness if you've taken in good light) and the line is still there. i'd maybe suggest raising a call with Sony support and get the camera in.

Hi.

I have the exact same issue here in Germany,

with a NEX 5R, with various lenses.

So far it seems to be a rare problem, since I didn't find

anything about it on the net exept your posting.

Did you find a solution for the problem since?

Regards, Ralf.
