I have a Sony Handycam DCR-TRV260 that I bought almost 4 years ago. It worked great for about 2.5 years. Then it just stopped working. Okay, here's the problem with it.
It will record but what it is recording is just black. When you look through the view finder it's black, too. It still records the voices, just NO picture! We haven't gotten it out since it stopped working on Christmas of 2006. It actually stopped working while we were recording the kids opening their presents. It has been in the case in my closet since then.
But I am having another baby really soon and would really like to have this thing working. I don't have the money to buy a new one.
Does anyone know what could be the cause? Or does anyone have enough knowledge on these to walk me through fixing it? I would really appreciate any tips or suggestions! And please don't tell me to take it and have it repaired. I am a stay at home mom and cannot afford that at the moment. Thank you in advance!
