Camcorder shows condensation problem most of the time




By Bearded Fox on Jun 24, 2006

" "
Sony Digital Camcorder (DCR-TRV355E) shows condensation error (code C21:00) almost all the time, even though the camera is totally dry and hasn't been taken outside the house for days.
I suppose it's a faulty humidity sensor or a fault in the connections to the humidity sensor.
I'd rather disable the whole humidity sensor and live without the condensation warning, and at least have a usable camera!
Any ideas how I could fix or mask the problem?

Its a possibility that the sensor could be bad but I'll bet that its a small surface mounted capacitor thats bad. These are common for the caps to go bad, and when they do start to leak, the camcorder should be taken into the shop asap, AS THE LONGER YOU WAIT THE MORE DAMAGE the Capacitors will cause, as they eat up the tiny traces on the board and then the board has to be replaced. Good Luck
