Panasonic camcorder repair question
Just disassembling the late model camcorders can be an aggravating
challenge, and putting them back together isn't any more fun. I've been inside older, larger lens assemblies, and there are a lot of really tiny screws and other hardware that needs to be kept in order. The iris types I've seen are very delicate and these can be driven by a moving vane (meter) type device (again, very delicate). When I get involved in small mechanisms, I generally rely on drawings, Sharpie markers, pieces of tape and a clear work area where I can leave the parts to be undisturbed. Having a 5 diopter magnifier lamp is also helpful (actually neccessary for me), but some sort of headband magnifier would also be good. Cheers WB .............. "Jay" wrote in message om... I,m a retired technician and I bought a Panasonic PV-353 last Christmas, the main intention was for outdoor use. When I took it out this spring, I got white out on the screen. Took it into a repair shop, parts 1 yr. warranty, labor only 30 days from purchase. Seems it has a frozen iris, they want $185 labor for repair, they say no parts involved. (It only cost about $250 to begin with). Can't afford this, can anyone give me some tips to repair myself? |
