You meant camera, right?

If you mean that EVERYTHING has a tint to it, that is the infamous bad ccd error. Sony tech just analyzed mine (THANK GOODNESS FOR MACK). Tech told me that this is the only downfall on this gem of a camera and once that is replaced, with regular head cleanings, and proper care, the camera would last a long-time.

You maybe luckily if it is the monitor on the camera. The cabling to the monitor may have developed breaks in one or two of the lines in the cable.
