G'day,

I've had my R7 for about half a year and am loving it. I needed to have the EVF replaced because of an issue, and I noticed on receiving my camera back that there was some light inside the edges of the EVF.

It doesn't seem like light leak. More that when I shoot into brightness (e.g. the sky), there is a blue tinged light in the black border around the EVF screen. It feels like it comes from the far edges towards the screen. It's possible that it is a reflection of the bright light back onto the affected area, but I don't really know.

I haven't noticed this with previous cameras and don't remember it being the case before my EVF was replaced. I wanted to see if others have any experience with something similar.

Thanks in advance and I'm happy to provide more detail if helpful.

Wondering if anyone has experience with this? I'm weighing up whether to take the trip into the city for a Canon tech to look at it.
