Sony 8mm TRV 530 Camera

The electronics on my Sony TRV 530  does not operate. The camera turns on but immediately goes into a continuous beep and has a "spade"∆ looking icon that faces upwards, flashing continuously. So it appears to involve the electronics panel. Is this something that can be repaired for a reasonable fee and if so, where would I get it repaired?
thank you,

I need a manual for SONY DCR-TRV Digital 8 Digital camera

Hi great camera you got my friend, nothing to beat the 8mm if you are planning making good movies that last.
You can get your booklet replaced at Sony agents like you will see on net, type Sony Support centre, then look for tel num in your location.
Take care,

all I found its a driver for hi8 camcorders but it seams that is for windows 2000 ...anyway some drivers work on xp just fine even if they were build for 2K ...its worth a try ...if not ..you can get a alder cheap computer and keep it with 2000 ( if we dont find the xp driver ) ...just for downloading and operating this camcorder...

Viewing SONY 8mm Tapes -- Please help

The older tapes were shot on a 8mm camcorder and the camcorder you have wil not play them becasue it doesn't have backwards compatability with the older format. The tapes you recorded are on a digital 8 camcorderr and it is different encoding than the one you recorded the other 60 tapes with. You will need to find either a dcr-trv 350 trv 530 trv 730 ect as these have the ability to play all the tapes.
Or find an older 8mm camcorder to play your tapes with.
Hope this helps
Cheers
