So I tried moving the objective wheel and it keeps timing out and sometimes ends up halfway between positions. I tried running Video to see what Eric saw, when the wheel looks to be in the clear position the Opal field is white and the Clear field is yellow, very strange. But in that clear position I can see how the image looks overexposed and noticed that the shutter stays open for at least half a second no matter what the exposure time is set to. So there are 2 problems, the objective wheel and the shutter speed. To address the latter problem I halted the computer and did another boot -r to see if anything would change. I saw the messages about the camera tasks being started at bootup. This time the shutter would stay open for 5 seconds and then closed for 5 seconds even though the exposure time was set to 1 millisecond.

Light is coming down from the objective through a clear opening in the objective wheel. I found that when I run Video then the shutter stays open for about 0.5 seconds, and when I run Monitor it stays open for about 5 seconds. I made sure the correct camera was set using 'sd'. The same symptoms are still here regardless of reboot and 'sd' check.
