I all.
I have a Sony vpl cx61 projector. This was an old work cast off. Has been working great for at least 1 year, how old it actually is I have no idea.
Today on start up and upon playing a film the image had a slight greenish tinge also the image was flickering. I then Turned it off and back on and the green tinge went and the image colour was fine, but still flickering. Lamp hours say 490 but if that's correct I don't know.
So when I turn the lamp from high to low the flickering stops.
Do you think this just a case of a new bulb? Or something else?
Looking around a bulb is approx £150-200. I don't really want to buy a new bulb if flickering will still be there, would rather save up some more pennies and get a 2nd hand projector from here or there.
Any advice welcome.
Cheers,Ash.
