Sony hdr-hc7 will not power on




By rmtaw on Dec 20, 2007

" "
My sony hdr-hc7 works when it is plugged directly into the outlet. However when I try to turn it on from the battery, it will not power on. I have tried 2 different batteries, both fully charged and it makes no difference. I purchased this 6 months ago and have only used it a half dozen times. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Same Problem

-   I have the same problem. My Sony HDR-HC7 camcorder is only working on the outlet. The batteries are fine but the camcorder is not working on them. I know that camcorder can see battery's charge since when connected to the outlet and battery in place it is showing battery charge information at 100%.
Have anyone found a solution for the problem?-   Guest

-   same prob. Cam will work on AC (no Batt) and rarely when on batt. when it does work date is reset. I imagine it is the internal battery at fault and possibly a loose power cable to this internal batt.
