  Marcello,

  It could be that your camera settings have been changed, try using a paper clip and pushing the reset button on top. Start over.

  Or it may be that your monitor is not calibrated properly, on my system the chroma calibration for the system set to component is vastly different from what the camera output alone is. Camera looks monochrome until I turn up the chroma.

  that’s the way the camera ships – you need to tweak the settings and use custom presets
