JVC Mini DV Camera

Jon Rubery Posted Dec 11, 2006

Camera seems to think that the lens cap is on, there is no image (and no the lens cap is not on)

The message "Lens Cap" appears when the camera is turned on, there is no image to see and it will not record, but the playback facility of old tapes still works fine. The model is JVC Mini DV GR - D60EK Thanks

    Hi there. I've got the same problem with my JVC Mini DV camera. Not sure if it's the same model number that you referenced, but it's definitely the same issue. I noticed it this summer after not using it for about a year. The view finder says that the lens cap is on, but it's not. I can see all of the images for night/day mode, etc., but the screen is black. I can record fine, and the play back gives you the sounds you recorded, but still no picture. I haven't tried previously recorded tapes, to see if they play back on the camera. I'll do that now. Anyway, if you've figured anything out about your camera, I'd love to hear the conclusion! Thanks! Brianna

    I was wondering if you were able to gets yours fixed I clled Jvc and they said I would have to mail it in and pay $60.00 for the evaluation unless it is under the recall. Just wondering if you had the same problem. Thanks so much.

    PLEASE NOTE!!! REGARDING MY POSTING OFFERING TO SUPPLY INFORMATION ON THIS PROBLEM, YOU "MUST" CLICK ON MY RED LINK AND ENTER YOUR E-MAIL ADDRESS INTO THE BOX PROVIDED, AS IF YOU JUST MAKE YOUR REQUEST "UNDER" MY OWN POSTING I WILL BE UNAWARE YOU HAVE DONE THIS, BECAUSE IT WILL BE ADOPTED BY THE SYSTEM AS AN OUT OF DATE POSTING. ALSO PLEASE INCLUDE THE MODEL NUMBER OF THE CAMCORDER AND A BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE FAULT, AS I FREQUENTLY GET REPLIES LIKE "PLEASE SEND IT TO ME AS WELL" WHICH TELLS ME NOTHING OF WHATS BEING COMPLAINED ABOUT.

    image sensor has failed - send to JVC for repair. sensor is about $40, labor additional. they will give you an estimate before repair.
