I have a Sanyo XF60A projector which has a "dark shutter" mode on it. The projector is stuck in this mode and therefore unusable. Any ideas?? I have tried the reset button!

SOURCE: Auto is stuck on and I can't zoom in or out or review pictures - shutter button stuck also

Being very careful, follow this pictorial disassembly (it's in Estonian, but just follow the pictures). Don't go any further than popping the top off the camera! Look for anything obviously broken off near the vicinity of the shutter button, or looking very different than what's in the pictorial. Keep in mind it's amazing what you can do with a little glue and scrap pieces of plastic:

Also, pay attention to the following post as there is some potential for electrical shock:

SOURCE: stuck in power save mode

Have you have selected the input you are using? You can switch between analog and digital input. The monitor would stay in power save if the input other than the one you are using is selected.
I believe the default input is DVI. Are you using VGA?
In the menu, under advanced, you can select the input.

The bulb lights up but it does not drop the photo to view

Hi Faye,
There is a "dark shutter" that blocks the light that probably is not opening.
It can be adjusted, but requires some tools and a bit of patience.
The process to adjust the DARK SHUTTER is:-
[1] Remove for the LOWER HOUSING.

[2] Insert a thin SLIDE into the GATE MECHANISM; the DARK SHUTTER should open.
Hope this helps you and you have the slide projector working again soon.
Regards,
Michael

My camera is a Pentax Optio m50, and there is no image on display. It's all dark and when I take a picture, it is also dark. Help me please. I've tried all settings.

A stuck shutter is another common failure mode for digital cameras. The symptoms of a stuck or "sticky" shutter are very similar to CCD image sensor failure. The camera may take black pictures (for shutter stuck closed), or the pictures may be very bright and overexposed, sometimes with lines, especially when taken outdoors (for shutter stuck open). To confirm a stuck shutter, put the camera in any mode other than "Auto", and turn the flash OFF (you don't want to blind yourself for the next step). Next look down the lens and take a picture. You should see a tiny flicker in the center of the lens as the shutter opens and closes. If no movement is seen, then you likely have a stuck shutter. If so, please see this link for further info and a simple fix that may help.

Hi, I have a Cannon Powershot A610 and when I take a picture the picture comes out too dark. How can I adjust the it? thanks

"Too dark" or do you really mean "totally black"? I'm asking because a stuck shutter is a very common failure mode for your particular model camera.

My Kodak 4600 carousel slide projector - will not send light out through the lens. There is some gate or baffle or something blocking the light. How can I fix this problem?

It is probably the Dark Shutter adjustment. The procedure is:

Adjusting the DARK SHUTTER

[1] Do the removal for the LOWER HOUSING.

[2] Insert a thin SLIDE into the GATE MECHANISM; the DARK SHUTTER should open.

[3] Check the the PRESSURE PAD is correctly aligned with the the DARK SHUTTER.
[4] Bend the PRESSURE PAD to adjust the alignment.

This is from page 34 of the SERVICE MANUAL, which you can view in its entirety here:

Dark on lcd screen when turn on. no display or picture.

A stuck shutter is another common failure mode for digital cameras, especially the S2 IS. The symptoms of a stuck or "sticky" shutter are very similar to CCD image sensor failure. The camera may take black pictures (for shutter stuck closed), or the pictures may be very bright and overexposed, especially when taken outdoors (for shutter stuck open). To confirm a stuck shutter, put the camera in any mode other than "Auto", and turn the flash OFF (you don't want to blind yourself for the next step). Next look down the lens and take a picture. You should see a tiny flicker in the center of the lens as the shutter opens and closes. If no movement is seen, then you likely have a stuck shutter. If so, please see this link for further info and a simple fix that may help. Also pay attention to the blurb there about Canon possibly fixing this for free (for the S2 IS only).

AF-3 carousel, lamp on but light guard prevents picture

Based on your description, I suspect the coil spring that tensions the "dark shutter" has either broken or has popped off it's mount. To be absolutely sure, take your projector to a factory-trained repair dealer.

Shutter doesn't open all the way leaving a dark section on the right from top to bottom

there is no shutter in the projector. that dark section you see is part of the light tunnel that is collapsing. it is a 4-sided mirror tube, and the glue breaks down in excessive heat. it needs to be replaced. part # 306-0095-00

Dark shutter hangs in up position

The dark shutter requires an adjustment to re-set it's "trip point". You should take it to a factory-trained repair dealer who has the service documentation & tools to make the adjustment.
