NEX-5 LCD problem and quick fix

[douglasf13]

Hi, I just wanted to alert NEX-5 owners that my camera's LCD developed an issue where, when flipped up about 45 degrees or more, the LCD starting showing subtle blotchiness and color issues (especially in darker tones.) I nearly sent the camera in, but decided to try unscrewing the two screws on the little plate that presses the LCD ribbon against the back of the LCD screen. I pushed the ribbon in very slightly, and then retightened the screws, and I have yet to see the issue return. :grin:

Of course, if your camera develops this problem, proceed at your own risk... :lecture:
