5D Mark IV dark area over 1/2 the image

pjsmith — Thu, 29 Dec 2016 21:04:06 GMT

Just bought 5D Mark IV. Took a few test shots and there is a dark area on 3 of the 5 images. Any idea what would cause this?

Any ideas??

Sample of all five?

Take a regular photo, not a video monitor or television screen.

Agree with the above comment. You're shutter speed is catching the screen refresh.

These are the only shots you have taken with a brand new 5D Mk IV? C'mon ! Really?

And you determined it is faulty?

Thats a 'refresh' thing from the TV, surely?
