My vx2100 has started showing red lines when recording. It's not a full time thing so I'm really confused as to what is causing it. It looks sort of like an exposure thing or red flares on the video. I've attached a link to some video I put online. I've already had this thing serviced once, I really don't want to pay to have it serviced again. Any tips would be appreciated.

seems to be an off again on again problem. since that last post it had worked great until today. i went to shoot outdoors today and immediately got red streaks down the image. i brought it back inside and let it sit and it's still red.

One thing to try is disconnect the CMOS and regular battery and let the thing discharge.Then reinsert the CMOS "settings" battery and let the processor reboot.
As for things coming loose, this shows all the stuff inside a similar VX-2000. Good Luck.

I have no solution to your problem, but looks like the blue CCD is failing. Or it's wobbling outta place......

it appears on the viewfinder even if i'm recording or not. if i do not put a tape in, it still looks red. and yes, it is recording it that way because i can play the tape back on another camera and i see the red on the tape.
i would agree that it looks like the blue is failing, except for the fact that it appears more like an exposure thing. it's always the white and brighter parts that appear red. other colors appear relatively normal, or not AS red as the white areas do.
i'm guessing i have to send it back to sony...for the second time since i purchased it. -
