I was recording today and the not would go off and then on several times intermittently. I had tried removing the batteryand using only AC power but had the same problem. Now it wont turn on so I can record. It will however turn on so I can play the tape. that is ok. I pulled the batteries and AC and let it sit for 5 minutes and put both batteries back in with no luck. There is No LCD screen No view finder no power.
Although the battery shows it takes a charge and the camera will run in playbackmode (VTR) I found if I remove the battery and run on AC the camera turns on and now I can record with it. The battery must be the problem.
