Sharp Video Cameras - Recent Questions, Troubleshooting & Support
Sharp Camcorder Viewcam 8 Hi-fi Monaural VL-E34h. It works but won't show the recording. The sound is there but no picture.
troubleshoot this problem:
Check the Lens Cap: Ensure that the lens cap is removed. Sometimes, forgetting to take off the lens cap can result in a black screen.
Inspect the Recording Mode: Verify that the camcorder is set to the correct recording mode (e.g., video recording mode). If it's accidentally set to playback mode, you won't see live video.
Clean the Lens and Sensor: Dust or smudges on the lens or sensor can obstruct the video. Gently clean the lens with a soft cloth and ensure there's no dirt or debris.
Battery and Power: Make sure the battery is charged and properly inserted. Low battery levels might cause issues with video display.
Playback Mode: If you can see previously recorded videos during playback but not during recording, it might be a problem with the recording circuitry.
Viewfinder or LCD Screen: If your camcorder has a viewfinder or an LCD screen, check if it displays any information during recording. If it does, the issue might be with the main display.
Camera Settings: Access the camera settings menu and verify that the video recording settings (resolution, frame rate, etc.) are correctly configured.
Tape or Memory Card: If you're using tapes or memory cards, ensure they are properly inserted and not damaged.
Manual Focus: Check if the camcorder is set to manual focus. If so, switch it to auto focus.
Faulty CCD Sensor: The issue could be related to a faulty CCD sensor. Unfortunately, repairing or replacing the sensor might require professional assistance.
If none of the above steps resolve the issue, consider consulting the user manual for further troubleshooting or contacting a professional technician.

There is no adapter available because the tape size is different than VHS. If yuo can post a picture of the part that is broken, I may be able to locate one. I have a number of scrap units that I can part out. Please also indicate where you aer located in the country.

My blu ray player won't play the hunger games
Need more info. Does the player accept the disc? If so, do you hear the disc spinning inside? If not, what does the player do? Does it kick the disc back out? Will this player accept and play other discs?
