I can't understand what the fuss is about. There is NOTHING wrong with these cameras, it's the people using them that is the trouble. RTFM I have an 850 dl camera which started playing up with an E04 error. I poked around on sites like this, and came to the conclusion that I had purchased a piece of JUNK! NOT SO!!!!!!!! After finding Stacy Sample Service Coordinator JVC Service & Engineering 10700 Hammerly, suite 110 Houston, Texas 77043 (713) 935-9331 Ext. 101 He sent me a file showing me exactly what to do to stop the error. It is VERY SIMPLE! FIrst, tap the side of the camera with a good thump, and it will remedy the problem immediately. Then, to prevent it happening again, do the following: 1. Chuck out all those cheap crappy tapes you purchased to save a buck. Get JVC or Panasonic. 2. Chuck out all those cheap generic batteries you purchased to save a buck. Get JVC 3. DO NOT STORE OR TRANSPORT THE CAMERA WITH THE FILM IN, OR THE BATTERY ATTACHED! 4. ONLY AFFIX BATTERY AND FILM IMMEDIATELY PRIOR TO USE. Keep both in their proper containers. I have NOT had ONE problem since carrying out this SIMPLE PROCEDURE. There is now NOTHING WRONG WITH MY CAMERA. Think you've got a lawsuit -forget it!
