Slanted picture The picture is slanted by 3/4 of an inch across the screen. this is really only noticed when watching letterboxed features. Is there a easy way to correct this problem? Thanks, Tim

check for the settings or the inputs doesnt match with the unit.

Sounds like you have retrace lines in your picture. It may resemble something like window blinds, but slanted to the lower right. You most likely have a bad crt or the AKB circuit is bad. This most likely needs a technician to adjust the G2's to see if it can be balanced.

that glass( slanted one) is supported on top by the metal plate ( problably 3 inches wide) running across the top of the metal cover(covering the insulation level) the glass inserts inbetween 1 or 2 tabs in the metal support, it then lays on an angle against the metal cover( hoilding the insulation level) and is secured by the 1 in thick angled metal retainer. hope this was helpfull.

Is the image slanted on the bottom as well?
Make sure the projector's throw is pointed directly at the target ie. screen or wall etc. there's not much else it could be.

It sounds like the dm bd. is loose. This is the module with the DLP IC on it. With the back off of the unit their is a module directly in the middle of the chasis that has a metal shield around it. Try to move it gently to see if it is loose. If it is loose that is what the picture is tilted. This is very difficult to align, but if you have someone watch the picture as you gently move this module you can get it strait. Then locate the screws that keep it tight and snug them

It is very common to have the convergance circuit on these sets go out and cause display distortions. Are the colors separated or is just the picture slanted?

Well, it depends on the extent of the repair. You don't necessarily need to repair the crack on the chassis, just the damage to the eyepiece components. Yes, it's worth repairing. Those D70s are just the right tool for people who want fine art pictures from a camera simple enough for a novice to use. The eyepiece is your most important resource when you're shooting, so you really want to make sure that it works as well as you do!

your main filter capacitor in power supply has gone defective.

just replace it .

every thing will be normal.

good luck.

 

No this is clearly a CCD sensor problem ( CCD generates image in v-cams and still digital cameras ) if the sensor is outputting too much noise then your image will be distorted just like yours is. If the sensor is outputting nothing then camera shows blank screen ( also notice that with this problem you can playback OK ). Replace CCD block.

Your deflection yoke (a coil around the neck of the picture tube) must have gotten turned. Your can turn the picture upside down by rotating this coil. If your set is in warranty, you should return it. When this "yoke" is adjusted the color is affected too. If you try this yourself you'd void the warranty and mess up your color. Stargazer
