I would really appreciate that link as well. I kept looking for the "red link" that you mentioned in earler responses, but it is not showing up. I hope you read this.

Jvc model no. GR-D33U and was wondering how to fix my camera lense. It also says lense is on and it's not and is black when trying to record, but everything else works. Oh and how much would it cost to get fixed? I just bought a charger to get it working again and now this......I appreciate your time. Thanks again :) Lindsey
