Pink tint on the edges of image with IMX219

Products & Technology Raspberry Pi

I’m using the Raspberry Pi IMX219 camera with a low distortion optic but I get strange pink colors on the edges of my image. I have tested two different optics and I get the same issue. Any ideas of what’s happening? Is this normal? Thank you!

Hi there and welcome,
I think it is normal without tunning it in LOW light too,your optic lens is an IR capable so you probably need to calibrate or tune it , Something to do with IR capable or no filter.
Check out this LINK may help fix it.

Hi, thanks for the link! What helped for me is this:

If the camera shooting effect is reddish, you can follow the steps below:

  1. Download the camera-override.isp file and extract it to a specific folder:
wget https://files.waveshare.com/upload/e/eb/Camera_overrides.tar.gz
tar zxvf Camera_overrides.tar.gz 
sudo cp camera_overrides.isp /var/nvidia/nvcam/settings/
  1. Install files:
sudo chmod 664 /var/nvidia/nvcam/settings/camera_overrides.isp
sudo chown root:root /var/nvidia/nvcam/settings/camera_overrides.isp

I’m not sure what changed exactly, but the image seems much better
