I have the same problem. My camera is about 3 years old, but I have less than 100 hours of use with it. I took it out to record Christmas and nothing but a black screen with the same error message. I tried everything and even did a camera reset. Nothing worked. I can view previously recorded tapes in the "play" mode, so it isn't the video portion that isn't working. When I do record, the camera will record the sound but no picture!
