K10d bad sensor?

gatekeeper · 01-10-2009, 03:22 PM

Ever since I changed from film to digital the first shot of a burst has a green hue. At first I thought it was just me getting used to a new camera but now after a few years I think the problem is with the camera. What do you think?

Yeah, that's not normal. Too bad your camera's probably not under warranty anymore.

Hi,

What do you mean by burst? Continuous shooting, maybe. Do you have the same problem if you select in 'Single Frame shooting'? It looks like there is some problem in camera ...

Hi, I shoot in both single and continous, skiing. In both RAW and JPEG getting the same green color occasionally. My guess is I need to have the sensor repaired, replaced or buy a K20. I wonder how much it cost to have the sensor replaced.

Does it look like that in the camera, or only after you upload it?

You can see it on the back of the camera.
