  P2 image distortion – any ideas?

  Posted by Ian Liuzzi-fedun on January 9, 2012 at 4:24 am

  Every once in a while I get the attached image from my HVX200a – any ideas? it is for a split frame and happens about once every 3-5 shoots.

  Wrong image. correct one:

  

  I have occasionally gotten this with tape based capture (actually a lot) but I thought that solid state was supposed to be impervious to this crap. Is it possible that the capture system is inducing this?

  Dirty contacts in the P2 slots?

  How would I clean these?

  If it’s constant, I would have your camera serviced. Sometimes canned air can clean it. If it were me, I would send it in for repair. It’s well worth the investment.

  To me, that looks like the codec board going bad. You should send it in for service.

  Best,
