Notes on the camera

The camera comes with this added note:"The camera will make sounds caused by internal mechanical movement when it is shaken. The sound arises when the lens moves. It stops when the camera is turned on. This is not a malfunction."

This type of thing has been reported for several different cameras. And it is considered normal. Some models actually rattle when you shake the camera a bit.

Hi, Your mechanic could be right. Sounds like the engine is running too fast for transmission to shift properly. Have him look it over. Good luck.

When I connect my midi cables to my PC and use Fruity Loops or Mixcraft and I play notes on the Roland Juno D keyboard, some of the notes stick and dont stop playing once released and others are played...
The name for the notes that don't stop playing is "Dreaded MIDI Drone". It is caused by multiple note on commands and lost "mating" note off commands.

Also read "c." on page 80 regarding buffer length and "choppy" sounds.

The problem of my camera is about the lens,cause It doesn't go out properly, and now its really not coming out and it has a sign that says lens error appears on screen, and now my question is how to fix...
If otherwise the camera is taking pictures and working OK, then we can assume that the lens mecchanism has jammed in and needs a mechanical reset. Use good tools to remove carefully. Keep the entire ecrew and remove , make notes of the screw, position if needed. get access to the front hood and look for faulty mountings or alignment issues.Look at the motor on the lens mechanism remove and use a tool to roll the gear to see if the lens moves in/out. if not check for locked dirt or misalignment. Set accordingly. It may require a lot of patience to sit with a proper lighting and look into this issue. Hope you get this right, good luck.

The doors will not unlock,I have the driver's door panel off and watch the rod not come all the way up. I tried using the key (same thing happen)
sounds like the lower latch has a broken piece of plastic jamming the movement. in these honda used a plastic case to house the internals for the latch and they tend to wear down... there should be up to three rods connected to the latch.
try lubing up the lock and manually moving the rods to get it to trip.
Notes.
the inside edges of the door panel are sharp, you may cut yourself while performing this repair.
when mine went i ended up prying the latch with a small pry bar from inside the door panel...
after drilling the retaining screws out.
it took some time and effort but the latch finally opened.

My camera will come on but the lense want come on and then it goes off sfter a few secounds
Without knowing the specific model, I'm going to suggest a few things here...There is a possibility that the lens has dirt in the mechanism causing a jammed condition--have you been to the beach with it recently?Any type of impact--front or side, can jam the precision movement. Most likely, the lens is jammed and when the camera senses this(using tiny contacts internally), it automatically shuts down to prevent damage. Send the camera to the *manufacturer* service facility--not a store. The reason being the store will usually add half the repair cost to the quote *you* see--NOT the actual quote from the repair facility.---Hope I helped you!---Rick

p.s. Is the camera under warranty? Impact or dirt is *not* covered

No power
Here is possible fix.
Understand and be warned that doing the following may damage the camera even more, but if it does not work, then it may be worth the try.

Get a towel, fold it and lay it on a table. With the camera turned off and at an angle so that it will hit on one corner, hit the camera on it's edge on the towel. Not too hard, but do it with enough pressure so that the camera may come back by shaking up the internal connections.
Try to turn it on again, try a couple more times if the first is not successful.
What this does is to cause the internal connections and parts be shaken to such a degree as to make possible connections work again.
You have (in my experiments) about a 30 percent chance that this will work and cause the camera to come back as it did before.

If this does not work, the camera is only good for parts or repair.
Possibly to be sold on a site such as Ebay as is or for parts or repair.

Embed audio notes
Since the C-5500 has audio recording capability it is possible to record brief audio notes, which become an embedded part of the image file. Open the MODE MENU and select the CAMERA tab. Toggle right to enter the CAMERA sub-menu and toggle down until you have selected the microphone icon, using the OK/MENU button. Then toggle right, select ON and press the OK/MENU button twice. The sound recording function is now enabled. About .5 seconds after the shutter is released the 4 second recording period will begin recording. You will need to point the microphone on the front of the camera toward the sound source. You can also record and record over audio notes on photos already taken. In the PLAYBACK Mode open the MODE MENU, select the PLAY tab and then select START. Pressing the OK/MENU button will start the 4 second recording period.
