Camera went swiming in salt water, But I need the tape!

Hi Folks My ZR100 went for a swim in salt water. I'm sure it's a paper weight, well almost, but may try to send it in for an estimate. The Problem is the tape is stuck inside the camera and I need the tape. How do I remove the tape without power? I need more detail then turning the motor. How do I get to the motor that releases the tape? Are there schematics online for this camera? Thanks m

Hi, last month we bought an intex round pool (18' x 54") with sand pump and salt sanitizer. Within the last 2 days the water started turning green. It turns out my husband accidently set the pump...

You don't want to swim in water that has algae... 1st ...Make sure you have the correct amount of salt. See you manual for amount needed. Must set you pump timer first and sync your chlorinator between that time, if pump turns off before chlorinator cycle ends, you will get an "Low flow" alarm. Set you pump timer to run 12 hours and the chlorinator for 10 to 11 of those hours and should see results within 3 days or so. After that, If you live in an area that is hot, 10 hours pump and 8 to 9 chlorinator... Hope this helps...

NOT TAKING TAPE

I have one doing the same thing. I called Cannon and the told me I would have to send it in for service. Now after reading that about 10 other folks having the same issue, I think Cannon has some issue with the ZR100. Of course mine is out of warranty. Everyone should call Cannon and complain.
