Hi Benimur
Thanks for the suggestion. I have checked the batteries and they are giving 8v +/- .01v steady with no load. I have tried a new battery from another camera and get the same fault.
We checked the start-up with another camera and the difference is that mine seems to wind the tape for much longer, then the fault shows up. If I switch on to Manual Record, and immediately press the Menu button, I get the menu to show until the tape winding completes then the fault shows. It does not give me time to get to the camera reset command.
If I set it to the switch to Still, ie through the memory card, I can get to the camera reset which then allows me to take still pics but I again get the fault showing on the video setting.
Is there another way to get into the software on this camera?
Many thanks
John
