The tape suddenly was rejected and it asks to re-insert cassette over and over and over. I unplugged the unit from wall and battery for 30 minutes to no avail. I'm in the middle of a shoot. Can you help? I am in doors in Chicago, no humidity.
This can be caused by several problems including the transmission gear in the tape mechanism not engaging properly or a defective clutch in the take-up spool and can usually be repaired fairly inexpensively. However, it's not a user serviceable problem and will need to be repaired by a qualified service technician.
My name is Rick and I'm a professional repair technician with over 20 years in the business and have repaired many of these. I'm semi retired and work from home with little overhead so I can keep repair costs low. If you decide to have the camera repaired, please click HERE for a directory listing that suits your needs.
