Slight Rainbow Lines

Since the day of getting the HVX I have noticed ever so slight, narrow still (best I can described it ) rainbow like lines running up and down my footage- its the same pattern as bars on a jail cell. I tried to get an example though a frame grab but it did not translate. Has anyone had this problem. Its only noticeable if you really look for it or unless the color of the scene is just right.

Shooting tape, 24p DV

The image I attached is an example of where the lines would be if you could see them in the screen grab.

Thanks!
 
I hope that is a "re-enactment" and not what it really looks like?

My guess is that you have AC or RF contamination between your deck and or monitor. I've seen that in our edit bay whn I had AC lines crossing our monitor cables or the monitor too close to something like a deck that is throwing RF interference to the monitor.
 
The yellow is just an example of size and spacing however the rainbow color is much more faint. The funny thing is that I hooked up my Sony Gv-D1000 deck which has a LCD. I could see the faint lines then - However the source i've been previewing the footage through is a TM-H1700 production monitor.

If you see it directly out of camera to monitor, then I'm gueesing you may have a damaged or hoprfully dirty head on the camera. Just guessign here though.
If not it might be time to send in your camera. :(
