[QUOTE="spb_stan, post: 622886, member: 43545"] Washed out color would be a symptom of light leakage, and decreased contrast, not over exposure. The same with light off axis falling on a lens, outside the frame that adds a whitish fog over the image. It is similar to off axis flare but without the distinct pattern or colors, since the light from the VF is unfocused and highly diffused, unlike light entering off axis of a lens light path. It is real so if you have not gotten it, the camera might have a smaller penta-prism or have a penta-mirror. It is more of a problem with full frame solely do to the larger VF. Even if minor contamination, loss of contrast is expected. If you don't get it, it is a matter of luck and probably a small VF objective lens [/QUOTE]
