My SONY DCR-SR85 just shows white after I decide to reset the Handycam it still works before I decided to rest it all the hardware is ok just a white screen. So what should I do? (PLEASE ANSWER)

First of all, why did you reset it ? Was there an underlying error you were attempting to correct ? Resetting equipment is not just for playing with, you know. Have you looked up this issue in the manual, or contacted the FAQ section of the Sony website ?

Plz tell me how to download a latest video editing

Losing your Handycam software is the best thing that could have happened to you all. It stinks. Firewire eliminates the need for the crummy camcorder software. Basically, you need to install, or have installed, a Firewire card in your PC, then buy a Firewire cable. Then WinDV software will work perfectly to import video. USB connections, and the USB cable, are ideal for downloading digital still images from cameras. Running footage requires a very large bandwidth, which basically is the throughput from camera to computer. Think of a funnel with a small opening. The small opening is USB. Make the opening 4 times as large and nothing backs up in the funnel. The large opening is Firewire. Anyways, by using a Firewire connection, you can bypass the camcorder software and use "real" video editing software.

As for the video editing software
You can use Sonys movie studio http://www.sonycreativesoftware.com/moviestudiohd
Or
Windows Movie Maker - The best video editing tool for Windows that's free and chances are you already have it installed on your computer as part of XP SP2. Microsoft Movie Maker has all the basic video editing tools plus a good collection of transitions and video effects.

There's an in-built movie titler that lets add you styles to text titles including ticker taps, zoom and even the scroll effect. And if you are feeling lazy, just hit the AutoMovie command to have the entire video produced for you with intervention.

Discs will not play back on dvd

What DVD's are you using +R/RW -R/RW some formats may not work especially on non-branded media some DVD players wont even play CD-R but will play some CD-RW of the correct brand.

I suggest that you try your finalized DVD in your PC then create an image using ImageBurn then burn the image onto a branded media and try again. Most firmware on DVD burners are very forgiving and will support a wider range of manufacturers and formats.

Hope this helps, you might want to look on your DVD players website for updated firmware you will need a blank CD and create a update disc using your computer.

I have a sony digital handycam dcr-pc103e. Suddenly the zoom is not working: it is stuck zoomed all the way in so I can hardly see anything through the lens. I tried to disassemble it (i'm really bad at this) and touch the switch a bit and when I turned it on again it seemed to work for a bit, but a few days later it happened again. Does anyone know the cost of this getting repaired? I assumed it needs to have the switch piece changed. Or if there's any way that I could fix this at home. Thank you!

this camcorder is an earlier model thus the zoom control motor could be weak, if so open it and take out the camera section and unscrew the zoom control motor, loosen it, some sort of sticky grease on the worm gear also obstructs, clean it with small brush or cotton bud. then apply a little silicon grease. don't let dust go in.
