Question about Sony Hi8 CCD-TRV138 Camcorder
When I try to record something, both the viewfinder and LCD screen are blank and the screen is blank when I playback what I recorded. It records sound okay. Also when I play back tapes I've previously recorded, they play back okay. I just can't record anything now. I'd appreciate any help I could get on this. Thanks!

Fixed it, at least temporarily I had the side off my trv250 examining it, especially the CCD connection. I had read the post about soldering a capacitor to pins 1 and 3 (from the left) on the bottom row. I didn't have the specific capacitor on hand, but I started touching some of the small ones I did have to those pins. I found that after I touched a 100uF, 10V cap to pins 1 and 3 the picture suddenly came back to life and stayed that way after removing the cap. I have no idea how long this will last, and I've set up the cam on a tripod in the livingroom with the LCD display facing me so I can monitor it. If you, like me, figure you have nothing else to lose, you might want to give this a try. Note: my camera was suffering from the green smeary horizontal lines problem, and wasn't completely black. I'm not sure if this makes a difference or not.

Just use good quality Video Head Cleaning Cassette. Video head is dirty/ clogged.
