Troubleshoot Jvc Digital Video Cameras

JVC adopted the VHS standard for its cameras and recorders.


JVC was one of the first video cassette device manufacturers, having adopted the VHS standard for its cameras and recorders. Today, JVC uses mini-disc, digital tape, hard drives or SD cards. Problems with the cameras can stem from power, recording, playback and other issues. These kinds of problems can be corrected by following some troubleshooting steps.


Instructions


1. Secure the battery pack tightly if the camera won't power up. Recharge the battery. Connect the AC adapter to the wall and the battery charger.


2. Look at any recording media that you are using and verify that the erase lock isn't in place. On SD cards look for a small switch on the side of the card that should be flipped. On cassettes, a tab is on the back.


3. Clean the tape heads if you're using cassettes. Use a tape head cleaning cassette that you can purchase from camera stores. Insert the tape and follow the instructions on the packaging. SD cards and other solid state media are less prone to dirt and wear.


4. Clean the lens if the images appear fuzzy. Use isopropyl alcohol and a lens cleaning tissue. Wipe the lens from the outside to the inside to avoid pushing dust into the sides of the lens.


5. Adjust the focus if images on the JVC Digital Video Camera are still fuzzy after cleaning. Use the automatic function for easy results. Press "Focus" twice to set it to "Automatic."
