Help with strange cx105 problem

[miconar 0]

Hi everyone

I have cx105, had it without problems for 8 months. During the last couple of weeks it begun to sometimes shut down and reboot while im recording. when it starts back up it gives me an error code 13:00:01, and instructs me to reinsert the memory stick several times until everything goes back to normal working mode. whatever i was recording when it shut down is completely lost. This obviously being a problem I took it the lab with sony's local representative.

They said there is nothing wrong with the camera and the error code is due to an unoriginal sony memory stick. however the cards in my DZ are all originals bought from them, this happened with several sticks, including one I bought directly from them at the lab.

so I sent it back to the lab again and borrowed a friend's cx105, and hooked it up with my setup (big sony infolithium battery, hypeye and memory sticks) and... got the same problem. he's camera worked perfectly until that time, and hopefully will continue to. no one else in my DZ has this problem, and we only have CX105s.

So you would think that the battery or hypeye would be my problems, but I was able to recreate the problem in the lab with a freshly opened memory stick, no hypeye and a stock battery they had lying around. so it must be the camera. but it happened to me with a different camera again...

what am I missing? this is obviously something im doing wrong, but what?

any ideas at all? any suggestion or thoughts would be very appropriated. Im burning up my DZ's profits with this shit, hundreds of dollars of money returned already.

Thanks

I had the same error code once, reinserting the same memorystick didn't work, but when I switched the cards between my 2 cameras they both worked fine, and still work to this day. YMMV

Thank you dragon2 :) Changing sticks didnt work.

Just thought id post what happend with this incase anyone ever gets here on a search with the same issue.

The problem continued, and i was still not able to reproduce it for the lab guys who were starting to give me odd looks and faces, until i used a friends camera to record video of the problem happening on my unit.

At this point they just gave me a new camera, and that was that, been good ever since.
