Camera displays no picture

Our webcam was working fine until today. The lens cap warning light is on, but the lens cap is not on the machine. Any idea what could be causing the problem.

Apparently this same problem exists on many different models. I have a JVC grd72u. I called JVC @ 800-252-5722. I selected the "Corrective Action Program" prompt from the automated attendent. I spoke to a customer service rep. They are aware of the problem and are fixing it for free, but only until 12/31/07. I suggest you call ASAP and get your name in the computer. If the problem is something besides the CCD sensor, they will call you with the estimate to repair.

Sorry for telling you this, but we have the same camera and the same problem, and it comes and goes all the time. Very annoying, but I haven't found a solution yet, and that was months ago.

I am nearly at the point of getting a new one, especially considering the sony mini dv is now only $250 (australian)

JVC GR-D33 DIGITAL VIDEO CAMERA
This is a very common problem on modern camcorders. The C.C.D. imager I.C. is defective. Depending on the part price and shop rates, expect around $90-$180 to have it repaired.

LENS CAP WARNING
JVC camcorder no picture on screen remove lens cap and unable to record problem is down to a faulty batch of ccd image sensors (thousands that Sony supplied) and if you phone the JVC servce centre (0845 3108000) and explain the problems you are experiencing its a good chance they will repair it free depending on model (I know because I have done just that and JVC are paying for it to be collected, repaired and returned totally free of charge, and mine was purchased in 2004. What have you got to lose the price of a phone call or about £70 to £90 to have it repaired yourself
Good luck syrups6

If it 1) Does not work well after a FULL charge. and 2) the camera is OLD. All I can say here is your battery is OLD (bad). If the Charge time is Quick this also also an indication of and OLD tired worn out battery. They are useless after 7 years...... and they are very weak after 5. Some go bad after as little as 3.

Pictures are black
My 4300 works fine until this week. No picture display on the LCD screen. Settings like date, exposure, etc.. are fine on the LCD screen. Able to get into setup mode and the colour menu selection box is fine. This shows that the LCD screen is working fine. Prior to this happening, I notice that when I took pictures in zoom mode, the picture turn out to be orange. I suspect this is caused by electronic failure. Light entering the lens cannot be transmitted to the LCD screen. Some photoelectronic stuff had reached its MTBF (mean time between failure)? Is there a way to save this camera?

Hi, I would assume that by "i have tried with the settings..." that you are referring to the Camera Properties in Windows. Perhaps you should try mechanical setting, that is manually adjust the focus of the lens. Around the actual lens to the front of the camera, rotate the stub/protrusion while watching the camera display on your monitor. Adjust to your preference. It may also be a good idea to increase the light in your work area. Hope this works out for you. Good luck and pls post again how things turn up or if you would need further information. Kind regards.

Canon A75 stuck between ON & OFF after uploading photos
My Canon A75 has the EXACT same problem. I have always handled it with care. When I was taking photos with it, the camera suddenly started shutting down without a low battery warning. It just started shutting down, but it stopped with the lens still sticking half way out. Like yours, the top green light flashes when I try pressing the power button. Any ideas?
