tape was stuck in machine,so i took apart and re assembled,which rectified this problem.trouble is now no image onscreen or thru viewfinder
Anonymous Dec 03, 2007

On recording and viewing, the image is barely readable because the image is dull as if there is not enough light being sensed by the camcorder? also is there any way the camcorder can be set back to the factory settings?

I am trying to record but nothing is appearing on the LCD or Viewfinder, also its looks like a lenscap warning is flashing on the screen but the lens cap isnt on. Can you anyone help me?

I think the iris of your camera is not opening....it need to clean the iris by the lighter fluid cause of some grease that sticking in the iris...don't attempt to do this is you are not a technician...

I have a fugi fine pix, when using it in bright sun light i cant see anything

Geofchaam,
You could be experiencing one of two issues:
1) You are having a difficulty viewing the image on the back of the camera (not the view finder). This is common on cameras out in the sun, try cupping your spare hand over the screen to cast a shadow on the screen.
2) You cannot view anything in the view finder. Since the view finder has its own tiny LCD display inside of it, it is displaying what image the camera will take if you press the shutter release. I would double check to see if the camera is set correctly for shooting in bright sunlight (check your owners manual, or set the camera to Automatic), and if there is a difference between what you're seeing in the viewfinder, and what images the camera is taking, consider calling Fuji, as it sounds like a hardware issue.

SCREEN AND VIEW FINDER BLANK

Is the battery dead? Try taking it out and charging it, then put it back into the camera.

Also, you can try using another battery of the same type.

Canon A75 No startup sound & display on LCD, rest of things works fine

Think it might be your batteries. 700mah batteries are pretty weak by today's standards (most are at least 2,500 mah these days). I'm guessing your batteries are several years old? If so, they're really only meant to have a usable shelf life of a few years, whether they are used or not. Recommend trying a new set of rechargeable batteries.

Nikon coolpix 5700

at the back of the camera next to the view finder (bottom right hand corner) is a button and icon marked SEL. pressing this button toggles the lens image from the view finder to the lcd screen and back again. IF neither view is available then I suspect your camera needs some TLC at a repair shop. hope this helps.
