Default Sony camcorder fault - please help

Hi Sharma,

If I am reading you right, when the camcorder is connected to the tv, on
playback or record colours flicker on the tv screen.

If so then this sounds like you just have the camera on the wrong playback
setting and so in the menu system of the camcorder change it from PAL to
NTSC, or other way around and see if that makes a difference.

Maybe others can verify this and you could also try e-mailing Sony
themselves.
Cheers,
Stephen

Hi,

I have a fault on my camcorder that is displaying a strange output via the
video out socket on the camera.

When I connect it to the TV, the camera has colour but when the picture is
bright it flickers and the overexposure blurs the real image. This

happens
in both camera mode and VTR mode. Interestingly, this does not appear to
happen on the B&W viewfinder on the camera.

I am guessing that this is a Chroma issue ? Please can someone point me

in
the right direction of where to troubleshoot this? I have the service
manual but it doesn't tell me much. Please can someone also let me know
what a Y process is and whether this is connected to the fault ?

Thanks for your help
