Problem for Sony HDR-HC1 Mini DV Digital Camcorder
HDR-HC1 power keeps cycling
When I turn on my Sony HDR-HC1 it continuously cycles on and off. If I switch it to photo mode (camera mode not video mode) and then switch it back to video mode it sometimes stops cycling. I tried reseting the unit with the reset button and that didn't work either.

- I was able to get the camera working properly by reseting it. I think the cause was using an off brand battery. The rest worked.I used to be able to use the iLink port successfully then it just stopped working one day. Still trying to figure that issue out.

- I also have a dead HDR-HC1. Won't power on ... LCD panel flashes for a split second when the power switch is put in Camera or VCR mode.DSJRAPPER: how are you getting $500 from Sony towards a new camera? Is this some kind of program they have? I'd love to pick up an FX7, or FX1000 to replace my HC1. $500 from Sony would definitely help towards that.
Thanks for any & all info - Take it easy! Chip- chipbos

- same problem i link stopped working power turns on and off, and sony wants $500 to fix it, the camera is great and all. I just wanted to tell you you are not alone, I thought the problem may be caused by hotswapping the I link port.. All I know is sony is giving me $500 towards a new camera, even though I am out of warranty! maybe someone knows why this happens!- dsjrapperBest Solution

I had this exact problem, and the cycling would stop after about 30 sec. and then function properly. I believe a circuit was confused, mainly because I used an older battery and let it run out till the batt was dead - accidently - and when I put in a fresh batt, it no longer cycled and works perfectly to this day.
Now if I can get my computer to recognize the camera via firewire, I'd be golden.
