Records sound but no picture

I have a Sony Handycam CCD-TRV37 that we didn't use very often, approximately 10 hours recorded. All was fine the last time I used it but now I see no picture through the viewfinder or screen when recording. Playback has sound but no picture.

    I have the same problem listed above. We never really used the camera very much, less than 10 hrs. It worked fine when we put it away and would not record the next time. We get no picture on the lcd screen or the view finder but it will record sound. This problem first accured about two years ago and when we could not figure it out we put it away and haven't tried since.

I have a similar camcorder Sony for about 3 years. it was working beautifully until last week. All of a sudden, everything I want to see from the viewfinder became blurry and colors are faded away. A lot of tiny dots submerged in a ocean.

There are two possible problem of your camera...one check the iris of the camera if it is opening,you will see it went you look inside the lens when you turn on camera mode....and if you see that the iris is opening...the second may be the ccd image sensor......if that is the problem you have no choice but to go the sony service for replacing the ccd image sensor...
