My Kodak V530's LCD turns off after 10 seconds of being on...

The LCD on my V530 will go black (unlit) after about 10 or less seconds after powering it on in any mode (auto/shoot, movie, or picture review.) The only way to get it to come back on is power the camera back on. Oddly enough when the screem goes out so does the power indicator light BUT the lens doesn't retract and close. Please help!

I assume you replaced batteries and all. Clean the inside of the battery compartment contacts with a pencil eraser. If you left the batteries in you likely have contacts that have corroded. Don't push too hard with the pencil eraser but clean them thoroughly. take into consideration that this is a longshot, worths trying, but I believe that the problem lies in the power supply, or in the circuit board. both of them will require a professional.

The display screen on my Acer Extensa 5620Z notebook frequently flashes, especially immediately after turning it on. I'd be grateful for any help and advice. Thanks.

Hi Jane,

You either have a loose connection, or a bad inverter board. The inverter board acts as a power supply for the lcd backlight, and is located behind the Acer logo at the bottom of the lcd. So.....when the screen flashes off, can you see if there is still an image on the unlit screen? If so, it's very likely the inverter board. Inverter boards are not expensive (in Canada, an Acer service centre pays less than $10 for the part). If you cannot see any image on the unlit screen, It's likely a loose connection, or the lcd is on its way out. Let me know if you can see image on the unlit screen........

Regards,

Joe

HOW DO I CHANGE THE SD CARD ??

These are the physical specs of Kodak Easyshare V530

The bottom and the top of Kodak V530

The left side and the and the front of Kodak V530

The back -lcd display and the right side of Kodak V530

On the right side of the Kodak v530, just look at the above image, you will see a slot in the center of the silver band covered with white felt curtain that protects it from dust. On this slot is where the SD card is inserted. Just insert the card carefully, and feel the click when SD card is placed properly, and push the card carefully until it bounced back and release from the slot when removing the SD card.

Make sure batteries are NEW! Even half-way dead batteries will have negative actions on camera. Also if you have a memory card, try removing it and see if your camera act normal now. Some memory cards have different impact on digital cameras.
Kodak will fix any camera for $40.

My Kodak V530 is able to turn on,but all black in LCD

Mine was doing about the same thing. Take the battery out. Take the 4 screws off where you can get to the screen from the inside. Get the back off where you can get to the screen connection. Press on the connection to make sure they are seated well and put it back together. It worked for me.

My kodek v530 camera wont start

My camera has the same problem. How could Kodak get away with that? Kodak V530 is a piece of garbage. I called Kodak's customer service. They offered repair for only $110. It is ridiculous, why we have to pay for manufactured defect? Take a look at the Kodak V530 on eBay. There are a lot of defective V530 up for sale. The government should review this E45 error lens issue, and have them take care of that. Or we should never buy Kodak again!!!!
