Just the two points left at the bottom you need a very smal soldergun

I have just fixed my VL-Z5E Dew problem. It seemed to be the same problem facing other viewcam owners so this may help someone. The dew indication flashed up on start just like others. I tried cleaning around the dew probe which is a plastic rod above the tape head system (fits into the round hole half way up the back of the DV tape) with a cotton bud - no change. Then I tried cleaning the V shaped end of the probe by wiping the cotton bud thru it - geronimo !!, it worked. I have switched the camera on and off about 20 times, recorded, played back and changed tapes - no further problems. Of course it may start faulting again but meantime its operating. Hope this works for others. Best Wishes, Allen

I have the same problem. So unpredictable. can anyone offer specifics on the location of the dew sensor, etc... diagram perhaps? Anything specific?
