Camcorder does not display a picture on the LCD screen or in the viewfinder when playing back a tape. You may have a blue screen, or lines through the picture. This problem will also occur when playing back on a monitor.

You may have a  clogged or dirty video head.

If you own a head cleaner tape you can try running the head cleaner tape no more than 2 or 3 time, and only 10 seconds at a time. Make sure to follow the directions on the head cleaner tape carefully.

If you do not own a head cleaner tape, try running a new fresh tape through the camcorder from beginning to end.

Never use a Q-Tip a clean your video heads, it can destroy them. Never spray any cleaner inside the camcorder this can also cause severe damage.

If the camcorder continues to display a problem, the camcorder will need to be shipped in for repair. Fill out the our Repair Order Form, and ship the camcorder into us for a free estimate.

There is a problem with the video camera when you hook it up to the computer. The computer will not communicate with the video camera via the firewire port connector or DV jack Connector. The camcorder will not capture.

We recommend first doing a hard reset to your camcorder. The reset button is located under your LCD screen where your playback controls are located. You will see a small, hole marked “reset”. Using a small pointed object such as a paper clip, press the button for 3-5 seconds. You will know that you have reset the camcorder, if it prompts you to set the clock.

Try hooking up the camcorder again. If the camcorder is still not working then the camcorder will need to be shipped in for repair. Fill out the our Repair Order Form, and ship the camcorder into us for a free estimate.

    Video One Repair is the best… They fix things right the first time and warranty the entire camera for 6 months after the repair. At 7 months I had a different problem with my camera than what they fixed if for in the first place and they still fixed it under warranty, that is going above and beyond the call of duty, I would highly recommend these guys for all your repairs, you can’t beat them..

  • Steve Petti, Professional Videographer

    “I couldn’t have been happier with their service! Sherman Bahr took care of us exceeded my exceptions! We will definately use them again!”

  • Edgar Green

    “I gave these guys a 5 star rating. What I should be giving them is six stars! These guys are at the top of their game. I was told what was the problem of my Sony HDR-FX1000 on the first phone conversation. With Sony updated replacement parts on hand, the turn around time was very fast. They are #1 in customer service and satisfaction. Will use them again.”

  • Jerome

    “Having never used a repair service for my cameras I was a little reluctant to use a company I was unfamiliar with. Video One Repair quickly eased my concerns when I talked with them and I felt confident they could repair my Sony FX 1000. The repair was perfect and the turn around time was quick. Thank you guys for a job well done.”

  • Michael Pittman, P & P Video Productions

    “I sent my 2 Sony fx1000’s in for a microphone and battery compartment issue. I told the customer representative (Sheryl) that I needed my camera back within 11 days. She assured me she could get them back in time before my next shoot. Not only did they do a great job on them, but also got them back a day ahead of schedule. She was the most knowledgeable and friendliest rep I ever spoke with. I will definitly be using their services again and will refer anybody I know to them. Keep up the good work Videone. You are great.”

We warranty your entire camcorder for 6 months!

Unlike other shops that offer a warranty on the area of the camcorder that they fixed, Video One Repair will cover the whole camcorder.  So, if another unrelated problem occurs within 6 months, just send it back in and we will take care of it for you – no charge!
