Starbuck Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 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! Welcome, dear visitor!

tinplater Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 Have you done a camera reset? When you look in the viewfinder do you see the same effect? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

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,. On 2/17/2018 at 4:21 PM, tinplater said: 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! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ph_LDA Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 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. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueBomberTurbo Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 Most likely an LCD cable issue, or a defective LCD, since it only affects the LCD. No setting adjustment can do something like that and not have it also affect the EVF or JPGs equally. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
analoguelove Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 (edited) Problem solved. Even I never dropped it into a pool or such, it turned out it was a water damage that caused the malfunction. Got it repaired for 300 bucks.

Kemil Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 Hi, searching for this issue I found your post. Can you let me know if the water damage was out on the LCD or affected the main board inside? Thanks in advance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phuc Hien Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 Hello everyone! I come from 2023. I just found out that maybe you could check Display setting at "Gamma display assist". You can turn it off and get some expecting result. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
