I use the power pack attached to the camera and when I turn on the camera it will stay on for about 4-5 seconds and then shuts off. It will not stay on. Once in awhile it will stay on for about 15 minutes and then shut off but it then repeats the 4-5 second shut off.
If your are still looking for an answer... The camera has some bad capacitors on one, or more, of the internal boards. I had the same problem.
There's a man named Cameron in Florida that can fix it (AV Repair), but it won't be cheap! I had him fix mine... it cost $350.00! But I love my camera... filmed many, many, things with it. It works great, and looks professional, and is... recorded tapes have excellent quality, and when transfered to DVD they can be enhanced (if you need to)!
SOURCE: shuts off
I have the exact same problem. It worked fine until the tape ran out. I even tried running it off the DC power cord instead of the battery. It seems there is something else wrong with it.
SOURCE: power will not stay on
