Ugly green horizontal lines

Fri Aug 30, 2013 7:21 pm

Hi,

I'm just testing the camera module recently bought.
But with dark scene i obtain poor quality image with ugly green horizontal lines :
Image

Here is the default command used :

raspistill -o out.jpg

I've tried many option with no result

I've got a 1a power supply.

Is there a problem with my hardware ?

Any idea ?

Thanks in advance,

What's it like under normal illumination?

Hi,

With a good illumination, the image seems to be ok.

I'm really thinking about a hardware problem with the camera module.

I've just testing with 5PM light (which is pretty good), and green line too.

I've changed the rapsberry pi card to another one (same sd card, same camera module).

I obtained this message :

Firstoff it means you have the old raspistill / raspivid version

do a

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install rpi-update
sudo rpi-update 
you should see "raspistill Camera App v1.2" now

Perhaps it's caused by an insufficient power supply (something similar happened to me). Try with a more powerful PSU
