Thanatos340 1 #1 May 23, 2006 Got a new (to me) HC-40 off ebay. Seemed to work fine when I got it last week. Now I have error c:32:11 (basically a Stuck Tape.) Open the camera and the tape tray comes out but will not pop up. It sits there and then goes back in. I have tried all rthe basic tricks I know such as removing the battery, letting it sit a few Minutes, and reattaching the battery with the camera turned on. Anyone have any other suggestions other than sending it in for repair?? I really want the tape back, The camera has a warrenty and I can return it but I do want this tape.

Dokeman 0 #2 May 23, 2006 find a buddy with a camera then firewire the footage to the other camera. Then send it off. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanatos340 1 #4 May 23, 2006 Yep. tried that many times now. No luck. This is the second hc-40 I have bought that turned into a Dud before I ever Jumped it (Last one had intermittent problem where the buttons on the touch screen only worked some of the time. Sometimes they work, sometimes they don’t). Anyone know if these are just troublesome cameras?? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

freeflir29 0 #7 May 23, 2006 I suggest a hammer. I'm currently trying to decide if it's worth the $331 flat fee to repair my PC-105 or just trash it and get a 1000 or something else new. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
