JVC mini DV

Audrey Marcy Posted Dec 23, 2009

nothing in viewfinder

I have a mini DV and it acts as if the lens cap is on all the time no picture in the viewfinder or pop out screen. It will play back a previously recorded tape, all the functions work and it acts as if it is recording - but black video with sound is the result as it isn't "seeing" anything

    As I think you will possibly be already aware of your model is suffering from a defective image sensor known as the "lens cap" problem. A special free (qualified) repair has been on offer for the past three years but it expired on June 2009, however info has it that JVC will still in some cases carry out this work on a goodwill basis depending on where you reside country wise, so contact whatever JVC customer services applies to wherever you might be located. Note! this does not cover any model with a DF heading, also more detailed info including web links cannot be sent to anyone who chooses to restrict their e-mail address.
