Hey guys,

I'm experiencing a major issue with what appears to be the sensor (or hardware?) on my Weapon MG.

I've re-uploaded the camera's firmware, used different OLPFs, SSDs and lenses, but the issue is still present. The affected areas remain the same when powered up, but seems to change size every bootup. I see it on the montior and after transferred to a computer. Occasionally, it will not appear at all.

Camera is under a year old with 169 Hours on the body.

I've uploaded an .R3D to the Dropbox folder linked below and will add in some additionals:

Has anyone experienced similar issues?

Thanks!

Kalum

I had some similar issues with my first MG. Got mostly green pixels on the the right side of my image in the area between 5k and 6k on the sensor. After a couple trips to Irvine I got a new body.
 
You probably have done this but have you tried a new, auto black shade?

Best of luck!
