-   I had the same problem - lense cap on - here is what I did to fix it: My husband took the lens cap off, placed the camera t in the sun for about an hour then flicked (not banged or beat - just a light tapping) and now its working. He said condensation, dust, etc may have made the lense stick. Good luck!-   Guest

-   I have the same problem.
When i bought the jvc everio gz-mg57 cam from CURRYS (around a year ago) in the first 4months it started to display " remove lens cap ", even though it wasn't on.
So i went back to CURRYS and requested a refund or replacement, but "the best they could do for me was to repair it", I thought What the FCUK!!!
With no other solution i gave them it to repair (6weeks later) in time for my African safari holiday i collect it. You have to a safari it's fantastic.
Guess what?......within 4months same problem.
Went back to CURRYS and they still fed me the same bull, but this time my warranty has run out BY A DAY!!! Now they say it will set me back £100. I paid almost £400 when the JVC everio gz-mg57e came out.

Anyway....Are there any DIY solutions i can apply?
