Pink Hue

I finally got out to use my HD Hero and for what ever reason some videos came out with a pink hue and you cant make out shit. Has this ever happened to anyone else?
Even in one video it changes from pink hue to normal while i was in mid air, so i ruled out bumps and vibrations causing it.

So far i have had nothing but trouble with this camera. I would not recommend this product to anyone. I regret buying the thing in the first place.

I did contact GoPro and they said to send the camera back to them as it most likely is the light sensor and will be repaired or replaced under warranty. Email them and attach the F'ed up footage or frame and they will let you know.

Yep! I'm having this issue too!

Typing up an email now. I uploaded a sample vid to vimeo, does this look familiar at all? I don't think the card is the issue, it's the Kingston 16GB class 4 they sell on the site...

Bump : 10 of my 25 videos from today turned out pink...  In the past only one or two would be pink every now and then (one of 35 videos turned pink from my day on 3/22/11)... very disappointing because I wanted to use some of the footage that got ruined by pink in an edit. :(

Help is appreciated.

I have had the same problem with my GoPro.
Its super annoying to come home after a day of filming and finding out some potentially good shots have been ruined from this.
For me i just tap the lens a few times everytime i start filming. If it is one of those shots that starts filming in pink then the tapping usually makes it go back to normal.
This works for me with my GoPro. This may just be my camera but i hope this helps !
