I want ccd number of dsc-v1 model digital cam

It is possible that the image sensor which is the CCD- charge coupled device is faulty and will need a replacement. However it is important that the OE part is required and so is best to take consensus with Sony spares and service.

Hi,
If it is Sony DSC-T1 camera then it got ccd imager chip failure problem that is why no image in lcd screen to take fresh picture.
CCD Imager chip will be replaced to fix this issue.
Let me know if camera model number if different or you need ccd imager chip part number info.
Thanks.

I have a good news for you. Probably the CCD imager is bad, it could be FREE repaired by SONY service center! Look for your local SONY serv.center.

Hi Pat,

There is a reset button which is recessed on the underside of the camera, next to the battery cover. You'll need something like an unbent paperclip to press the bottom and it resets the camera back to factory presets. This reset includes setting the the file numbering system back to zero so if it works you'll need to go into the menu and manually set your file and folder numbering to something which won't clash with earlier photos.

The only trouble is that the camera needs to be powered up for the reset to work, so you'll need to plug the charging lead into the camera to power it up.

If this fails, then your camera has sadly become a parts donor.

DSC-V1's in excellent condition regularly appear on auction websites but take care: many will have a CCD just waiting to fail so either ask if it's been replaced by Sony (making sure the seller can supply proof) or get a DSC-V3 which is very similar but does not have the risk of a faulty 5MP CCD. The DSC-V1 is still a better camera though as it handles better and has less image noise.

This sounds like it might be a defective CCD imager. If so, Sony might fix this for you for free (depending on your model number), including free shipping both ways. This is regardless of your camera's warranty status. Please check the following link for more info:

Assuimn there is nothing on the lens[I would not think this is the case as it would not show as a distict spot Not ne fora DIY or a repairshop this is a a failure of the CCD. Depending on the age of the camera and model this may qualify for replacement, as there was a reported CCD issue at one time Either that or Sony may offer a replacement at a good discount.
