SXVR H-18 Mirror Ring

[Starstrike]

Has anyone with a SXVR H-18(or similar) had a mirror ring or part of one form around the quartz screen infront of the CCD chip in their camera? Secondly have you noticed any effect on the quality of the images produced. Have a look here.

No.....I haven't seen that.

What exactly do you mean by a 'mirror ring'?

[Starstrike]

A circular fillet of epoxy resin has developed an air gap between it and the quartz screen so I was told and there is a mirror type reflection when you look at the affected region, see my pic in the previous post.

Yep, saw the pic, hard to tell what it was exactly without the description.

I would contact Terry Platt at SX, he will help you out.

I don't understand the pic either. I see white marks around the edge. What am I meant to be looking at?

Olly when I look closely enough I can see my face crystal clear in the strips, they are not white but reflective as a mirror, I would say silver. Rob the epoxy description is from Terry, I have just had reassurance from Terry that this has only happened on one other camera and they are now checked to ensure it does not happen again. That is what I call superior service and justifies buying from such a first class company.

I can't in the photo but as long as you are sorted all is well.
