Flickering at topline of image

Hi,

I have recently bought a Sony FX1E and have only recorded a few hours on it.
But I have noticed a problem when capturing my footage and editing.

It seems like there is something wrong with the upper pixel line if you can express like that. I especially noticed it when I was filming a totally white background and when capturing into Vegas its like there is a thin black line on top.

Then I took a closer look at my other footage and there is some sort of flickering when viewing movies I have rendered.


Maybe you can get a sense of what I'm meaning at this short clip:

And at this image snapshot direct from vegas it's quite noticeable. I have placed
the snapshot on a white background so the line on top is viewable. Zoom in and you can see it.

What is this? Is it my Fx1 that has an error? I am quite confused as to what it is. I tried connecting the FX1 to my computer and record direct on tape while watching the image on the capture device in Vegas. Then I couldn't see the line but when capturing the same recorded image it was back.

Can you help me as to what this is? Am I doing something wrong regarding some settings maybe?

Thanks in advance,
Sean Pedersen
 
Have just made a test with a clip in normal speed and then halfway in the clip slowed down. It's certainly most noticable in slow motion as it starts to flicker pretty much.

But still in normal speed I can see some sort of a small line on top that is not as sharp as the bottom one. I don't understand what the problem can be.

Fernando linked to another thread but as I see it I don't have the problem with the whole image flickering, only the top line.

If I zoom in via pan/crop in vegas I can remove the flickering in the top line but I would like to know what causes the problem?
