Ring Security Cameras
Red tint on security camera
I moved my ring security camera today and when I plugged it back in, a reddish tint appeared on the feed. I was careful not to drop or bang the camera and has no damage. I find it odd that this has happened and only on a portion of the screen. Any ideas? Thanks in advance

Half of my screen had a red tint, Happened out of nowhere. Taped on the floodlight camera and problem went away.

The tint issue randomly appeared for me last night, where half my screen had a red tint. I did the tap approach whilst viewing the live footage, I could see the red tint move left right, fully covered, eventually the tint went away. Any idea if the issue returns, and if so how soon. This could get annoying.

Same issue for my floodlight cam. Tapping the camera lightly (with a vacuum pole) worked like a charm! Thanks for the tip!!

Same issue. red tint for entire view. Tapped the camera and the issue went away. It's back again today. Not going to enjoy doing this on a regular basis. BTW.... the camera worked flawlessly for almost a year. Makes no sense as to why this occurred and reoccurred after the "corrective" tap. These are expensive devices and it seems Ring should investigate and provide a better fix or even recall and replace.

It is odd that the filter would just spontaneously shift position, with no evidence of impact from anything. But watching the signal while tapping it on the side opposite that with the red tint actually incrementally moves the edge of the tint horizontally away from the side of the tap, eventually removing it.
