Please help - a6500 Live View Display yellow?


Recommended Posts

Hello, can anyone help me figure out why my display has this yellow cast? 

 

I just purchased it used from B&H and have reset all settings to no avail. It does not appear when I download the images, it's only on the display.

 

Thanks in advance!

I got the same problem on my Sony Alpha 6500. The movable display has a permanent yellow tint.

It affects everything visible, the actual preview of a picture as well as the text in menu-mode.

This just occured from one day to the other,.

Have you done a camera reset?  When you look in the viewfinder do you see the same effect?

 

The viewfinder is not affected and the recorded data, both, stills and video are ok.

Definitely no wrong settings in the menu.

A factory reset did´t solve the problem, neither did changing the batteries or cards, turning the cam on-off, moving the screen...nothing.

I guess it´s a hardware problem, maybe a broken cable or a loose plug inside of the body.

Did anyone open their camera yet and fixed this somehow?

Any recent thoughts or other solutions for this?

Thanks a lot!

isn't that something like focus peaking? I own a 6300 which has weaker functions but I assume that if there's more ppl affected by the same issue maybe you have activated something (such as focus peaking, zebra etc). For istance, focus peaking comes in red, white or... yellow.
