Hello, the following weird image issue began one day. It is not a burn in, as it just began one day when I turned it on in the morning. The image was perfect for the first week, then this happened.
I am attaching the image.
It changes the color of everything. It is not always green, it just depends on what is on the screen at the time. It makes flesh tones look pink.
Any ideas?
Please help...

A large strand of hair across the green panel? I don't know.

I am pretty sure it isn't something physically blocking the image. Could it be the lamp, or maybe something else?

Stray light from an lcd panel with the shutter stuck open. Some mild voltage keeping some individual pixels 'on'. Warranty for sure.

It looks like a hair has found its way to your green polarizer. I had the same issue with my L300U and solved the problem by gently using compressed air to blow away the dust inside my projector where the three polarizers can be found. You need to remove the top of the case (or at least you do on my older L300U). If you can focus down enough you will see the hair actually come into focus. Or send it back for warranty repairs if you are uncomfortable taking the cover off.

Thanks for the replies guys. I think I am going to send it to get repaired.
I am curious about the hair thing though.

Tom, how can I change the focus? Just use the menu to focus the screen bigger, or focus it smaller.
