Problem for Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-P92 Digital Camera

Power on for file viewing and setup, but not camera or video.....




By idontcareabo on Jan 20, 2009

" "
When I press the power button, it comes on, but only if I have it set to the "Play" button which lets you brows your pictures; or if I have it on "Set Up"

If I switch it to the camera or the video options, it immediately shuts off.

The camera went several months without use, sitting in a drawer. When I tried to use it again, this was the problem I was presented with.

Any help would be appreciated.

Same Problem

-   Same problem, power on for file viewing & setup only. Shuts down when put on camera or video. Also noted that have a flashing red LED where memory card plugs in. New and/or different batteries make no difference. Since this 1st occured problem has escalated to not coming on for any setting, however LED continues to do a fast flash. Reset button has no effect on camera itself or LED, though LED ceases to flash as long as reset button is held down. Was such a good camera, how could it just up & die for seemingly no good reason?

ANY HELP OR EXPLAINATION OUT THERE FROM ANYBODY?-   HALAXWOOD2

follow up... try going with a different set of batteries all together. i swapped the sony ni-mh batteries with a generic brand of nickel-metal hydride batteries and 'camera' & 'video' mode are working once again.
