Is it an issue for K7?

[danst]

To all K7 owners,

Have you encountered any vertical green band on the left hand side of the images taken by your K7 under high iso and low light condition like the following image?

If so, is it a cmos defect or firmware issue?
Please advise.

Thanks and Best Regards,
Dan

Assume that you are shooting under fluorescent lighting ......Banding probably caused by the flickering of the lights ..... try lowering your shutter speed to 1/60s and below under such lighting conditions.

Thanks for all the replies.
i think it could be due to underexpose of my image that led to green vertical banding issue.
Cheers!

if the above provided solution works for you do say.
