      Came for this. Did you find a solution? My floodlight cam turns also pink. Like a intense pink filter on the footage. I have took 2 pictures from the same location. The pink one is from the floodlight. The other one with my phone. On nighttime it turns to normal. Only daytime is the footage pink. Is

    The IR Cut Filter is stuck. The filter engages when the ambient light level drops, it is a mechanical component. The only fix I've found is to tap on the camera housing with a rubber mallet until the filter retracts and picture corrects.My floodlight camera started doing this a about 2 months after the warranty expired. I'm looking for a replacement that doesn't have this problem.

      No, this seems like it is really just a hardware failure. Even after it is "fixed" I can tap the side of the camera again to bring the pink image back immediately. Whatever mechanism is holding that filter has broken loose. You can see in [this video from my Ring account](https://ring.com/share/d

      I spoke to ring customer service and the solution was to ask me to purchase another one as they could not fix this pink image issue. They offered me a 35% discount code. This is poor service and not standing behind their product. My cameras are not even 2 years old but warranty of course is only 1

      Support team is useless. The girl I spoke to insisted we walk through steps even though this is a common issue. The camera is mounted up on my house, so I wasn't about to get out the giant ladder and crawl up there to "reset" the device. Plus it's a huge waste of my time. The first thing they do is

      After you whacked it with the mallet, did the problem reoccur? I'm having the same issue. I whacked mine with a stick, and after several whacks,  the problem was fixed, but for how long? If this becomes a frequent problem, it will be time to look into a different company. Thanks.

    Yes! Try tapping the top and or sides of the camera slowly several times with the wood part of a hammer.. This sometimes loosens and resets the IR Night filter which is stuck in night mode. Had this issue for years. Advised Ring and they sent me a 35% credit for a new unit.
