Jvc gr d50.. "condensation, operation paused"

This is usually caused by a failed component in the moisture detection circuitry within the camera and can usually be repaired fairly inexpensively. However, it's not a user serviceable problem and will need to be repaired qualified service technician.

My name is Rick and I'm a professional repair technician with over 20 years in the business and have repaired many of these. I'm semi retired and work from home with little overhead so I can keep repair costs low. If you decide to have the camera repaired, please click HERE for a directory listing that suits your needs.

Moisture has entered the camera due to condensation. Typically when you take the camera to a cold external setting from a heated room.
The warning is to protect tape and camera and is a normal built in feature.
You simply have to wait until the camera acclimatises.

You have condensation on the video head that will casue the tape to stick to it. You need to bring the camcorder to room temp for about 30 minutes. I have never personally seen it but that is what its trying to tell you.

That come on because of a humid condition or moisture on the head drum of the camcorder. This is usually cause by going fro a hot enviroment to a cold enviroment. This prevents tape damage or destruction as the tape will stick to the head as it spins. You can open the cassette compartment and use a hair dryer on a low setting for a couple of minutes to get rid of the moisture or just leav the cassette door open for about an hour or until the warning clears.

If the camera becomes damp or cold and brought into a warm atmosphere damp forms in the mechanism which would cause the tape to stick and become damaged or fouled.

leave the camera to warm up for a few hours and the fault should clear.

If not the most common reason is the dew sensor has failed and needs replacing

This is a bad or dirty dew sensor, a common problem with this model. It's not a user correctable problem. Your local camcorder repair shop should take care of it ( under $100 ).
