Any light source that has a ballast will do that. The human eye puts it together so you don't notice it. You will see it in TV slo-mo replays if the camera is pointed at the lights. The newer Canon high end cameras automatically detect and eliminate this.
That's exactly what it is. The camera model and make is irrelevant. If newer Canons detects and eliminates, that's a very neat in camera post processing trick.
Happens to me a lot in dance studios with HID. Shutter speed up at 1/320 to stop motion. Depending where I happen to hit the 60Hz cycle, Red to Blue shift. Less noticeable if I have a lot of ambient ( bright sunny day). You can knock down the Blue & Purple saturation in ACR but normally, I simply convert to B&W. When I have a studio session and can add mono lights, they don't matter .
Slow your shutter speed to 1/125 and you'll see it lessen. At 60HZ, everything is fine. But if that is the light you are recording and you're shutter is a fraction of 60HZ, you'll see it..
