Color fringing / Sensory Misalignment VX2000	Can't Post

Help!

Whats happened to my VX2000

http://homenet.thebarnards.co.uk/DSC00014.jpg

This is a still (video produces the same results) taken at the extent of the cameras zoom (digital zoom is off). There are no filters on the camera.
The still is of two pieces of white paper. You can see a yellow line on the left hand side of the camera and a blue line on the right.

I put the still into photoshop and looked at individual channels (RGB). It appears that the blue CCD is out of aligment. Moving the blue channel to the right enhances the effect seen in the picture.
Is this possible? Could a knock of misaligned the sensors? Is there anyway of realigning them or compensating for the misalignment? Can I realign the sensors myself or will I have to send my camera to a service sensor.

Drat! Shooting a wedding next week.

Thanks for you help
Leon

Unfortunatly, There's no prism alignment. The block itself will need replacement. The part alone will cost about $460.00 plus labor. Wish I had better news.
