Check you wireing connections. Possible a grounding issue or just poor contacts.

Try turning the brightness down and the contrast up and also adjust the color so it looks as real as possible. Also you can change the energy saver setting to make to lighter or darker. Offhand my settings on dynamic mode are:Contrast: 95Brightness: 32Color: 64Sharpness: 90Energy Saver: Level 1

Try contacting Sony tech support, if you haven't done this already. Another possibility would be to call (or visit) a local pro camera shop in your area. Good luck!

It is a color camera, and when I could get it to work it was fairly clear, not HD clear. This is not a reliable camera system.

I agree with JR, check/swap your wiring/power supply. If it still doesn't work send it back. Quality control on this camera is not good, Ordered 2, one was bad right out of the box.

I didn't own the camera for long. The camera malfunctioned before I could install it. They have little to no help avaliable. The colors seemed to be a little darker,but not washed out. I hope this information is helpful .

I found that the brightness level in "Dynamic" and the default "Custom" setting are too high and need to be brought down to under 35% to remove the color shimmers. Black areas need to be BLACK, not grey. Use that as your guide to setting the brightness and the picture will not show the "bleeding", "shimmer", color gradation.

I had the exact same issue. I downloaded the following driver (rsCap1.1) and it worked fine (I don't know the original site that I downloaded it from but this looks legitimate). http://www.21best.com/21_best/electronic/security/video/cameras/inspection/icam-59-color.html (follow the link mid-way down the page)

Sorry, I can't help. I bought this camera for a vacation that got postponed. I haven't had a chance to play with it yet. :(

Try a different input on ur DVR that you know works correctly. If it still does not show color, u have a defective unit as the night/low light feature is automatic. These cameras are built very well and I have had no problems so far.

Cant be certain, Im sure you would have tried this, but check all your connections. It sounds like you are not getting video input. Without this the screen will glow-my thoughts it would be blue or white.

Yes, for the one I used it for I didnt have the colors either. It will still provide the picture that you want, however you will not have any sound.

I have two cameras and neither has a blue haze. My guess is that the camera is defective. As far as I know there is no setting to correct that.

i have a different model but similar issue- the color was only black and white. the green is a shared port so use it as yellow and go in to the settings - go to options then down to input options. then go to AV input and change the setting to VIDEO. I bought a tv and the online trouble shooter said bad tv so I ordered another and it did the same. this time I called support and they helped
