Purple Band in H4D-40 images!

[sjones]

I have had my new Stainless Steel version of the H4D-40 for about two weeks now, and all has been fine up until my last session yesterday! Now I am getting a Purple Band across the images! I was using the 80mm and the 150mm-N Lens and a 16gb SanDisk card. I even tried another card, and got the same thing! Any suggestions???
Thanks!

You need to swap it with me for my H1D, mine doesn't do purple bands.

And I was expecting an image of a band containing Ian Gillan, Roger Glover, Jon Lord, Ian Paice and Ritchie Blackmore singing 'Smoke on the Water'.

Sorry, I have no idea why you would have that banding, temperature possibly? is it still doing it?

I just spoke to my dealer and they are shipping my a brand new one out to me tomorrow!!! He said it was a Kodak problem! Anyway my problem is fixed since they are shipping me a new one! Just hope it doesn't have the same problem!!!!

Glad its sorted for you, I would have been mortified. Are you doing a reshoot or some heavy photoshopping?

Just going to do some heavy PhotoShop!!!! This client lives about two hours away!

That would be Very unlikely.

This is a sensor error that is rare, but in electronics anything can happen, and when it does, it is usually in the 1st 30 days.

Very good response from Hasselblad & all.

Very True!!!

That that rare

Not that rare. Happened on my H4D 50.

I was told I had to have new sensor fitted. Luckily under guarantee
