Samsung VP-D26i Mini DV Digital Camcorder Questions & Answers
Need Vivitar DVR 518 User Guide and/or Manual.
I have the same situation. The tutorial on the enclosed CD says to download the manual from the vivitar web site but, as you indicated, the web site does not recognize the model. I called their support number and was given some BS about there being download information on the CD/DVD if you go into explore and look at properties (these 'support' people obviously have no computer experience). Anyhow, they said that they woudl ship me a new disc that has the manuals on it. Time will tell but this seems to be the only approach that has gotten me anywhere.

If you haven't cleaned the video head yet this should be the next step. Get the proper video head cleaning swabs and cleaning solution (usually 100% alcohol or electrical contact cleaner) and open the video tape cassette compartment door. The video drum is the large rotating drum near the bottom of the cassette compartment. Being very careful, (never go up and down (vertically) on the drum), clean the head paying particular attention to the location where the rotating and non-rotating parts meet (that is where the actual video head assemblies are). Also clean the audio/CTL head, capstan, pinch roller and tape guides while you're in there. Give it a test and see if this has solved the problem. If it did not try the following. If you are handy with tools, have a set of jewelers screwdrivers (they can be purchased also and are fairly cheap), a set of magnifying glasses and lots of patience use the screwdrivers to remove the cases of the camcorder. When you get the cases off look for ribbon cables which are loose or out of their connectors. If you don't find any you probably have a problem which is beyond your repair capabilities and you will need to take it to a reputable repair facility. Good luck.
How do I get my Samsung sc d 353 mini DV tape recordings on computer
To transfer the recordings from your Samsung SC D353 Mini DV tape to your computer, you'll need to follow these steps:
1. Connect the camcorder to your computer: Use a FireWire (also called IEEE 1394) cable to connect your Samsung SC D353 Mini DV camcorder to your computer. Most computers have a FireWire port, but if yours doesn't, you can purchase a FireWire adapter card.
2. Turn on the camcorder: Turn on your Samsung camcorder and set it to VCR mode.
3. Open the video capture software: On your computer, open the video capture software that came with your operating system (e.g. Windows Movie Maker, iMovie on Mac) or a third-party video capture software (e.g. Adobe Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro) that supports Mini DV tape.
4. Start recording: In the video capture software, select the option to capture video from a DV device. Click the Record button in the software and then press Play on the camcorder to begin playing the Mini DV tape. The video should be captured and recorded onto your computer.
5. Save the video: Once the video has been captured, you can edit it if necessary and then save it to your computer in the desired format.
Note: If you do not have the original video capture software, it is recommended that you search and download compatible software before beginning the transfer process. Additionally, make sure your computer has enough storage to store the transferred files.
Samsung SC-D353 foggy lens - what can I do?
If the lens on your Samsung SC-D353 camcorder is foggy, there are a few steps you can try to clear it:
- Clean the lens using a lens cleaning solution and a soft, lint-free cloth. Be sure to gently wipe the lens in a circular motion, taking care not to scratch it.
- If the foggy appearance persists, there may be moisture inside the camcorder. You can try using a hair dryer or a can of compressed air to blow out any moisture that may be trapped inside the camcorder.
- If the foggy appearance is still present after trying these steps, there may be an issue with the lens itself. In this case, you may need to have the camcorder serviced by a professional.
I hope this helps! If you have any further questions or if you are having trouble clearing the foggy lens on your camcorder, don't hesitate to ask.
