My sony 1272q has a severe halo or flare around bright objects. At first I thought it was an optical problem but I removed the lenses and the flare is seen right on the tube face.
Its not noticeable on dark scenes, contrast is good, but on a dark scene with a bright object, you can see the halo very clearly. On bright scenes, the contrast is horrible, the image looks flat and washed out. The halo can be seen past the raster area.
Both the green and blue tubes have this problem. The red is not bad at all. I've tried to adjust the flare and astig rings, but that has not helped. The halo is present even at minimum contrast levels.
Please see the attached photo. Any ideas on what the problem may be?
