- Yep, same problem ... I've put in a tape for playback and the power light starts to flash ... two quick bursts then off for a second before repeating the flashes. Unit shuts off after 30 seconds. I've checked the owner's manual but can't seem to find the answer.- KingMan48168Apr 04, 2008
- Yes, I have the same problem. I own an XL-1 and in the last few months, occasionally when I connect it to power or battery, the power light flashes and the camera shuts off even though it was already in the "off" position on the dial.I have already checked all 8 of my batteries and they all are fine, and my power adapter is cool as well. I have also tried to clean my connectors, so I am at a loss now.
Please help me anybody!!!- goofymatt

same problem, my nv-ds50 powers up, but with the with power light flashing in twos and then powers itself down. The menu button sometimes works briefly when it's powered up. I had been transferring video back to mini dv tape from the pc (pinnacle studio 8) when I first encountered the problem and was wondering if I damaged something in the camera by powering up/down in the wrong sequence using my firewire cable?? I also seem to have a lower case "f" to the right of the timecode when it powers up - & cannot find any documentation as to what that could mean (although perhaps it's a "t" for timecode?)...I tried the c.reset option in "display setup" a few minutes ago - no luck then...but hey bingo, now I seem to have it back on line again ...go figure!
