Problem with image color/quality.

Postby kdlarman » Sat Aug 18, 2012 4:22 pm

New F18608W H.264 cam. Received it a few days ago. Let me attach a few images. The first one is right out of the box (before I'd even set the date and time correctly). Image is rich, saturated with strong color.

Second is time stamped relatively correctly. (I grabbed all these from video frames but the same exists in stills, I just realized I had videos showing the effects from day 1.) Second video shows how the color has seemed to have left the building. No amount of fiddling with the color settings including defaults made a difference. Same was true wither IR was on or not. I tried a factory reset and still looked the same.

Third image shows what is now appearing somewhat sporadically although it seems consistent now. A descending "green" from the top of the image.

I'm assuming the imager is dying a fast death. I updated the firmware today but with no effect on the problem.

I assume I need to RMA this thing? Like it otherwise, but this ain't right...
