Hello everyone. I just got a FREE panasonic Palmcorder as described in title. It is in great shape but it has an issue and I don't know what to do to fix it or if it can be fixed. I transfer taped movies/videos to DVD and will use the camera to play VHS-C tapes into a DVD burner.
ISSUE: When I put the tape in the tape box closes. I get a continous clicking sound, the power light goes off and on and the tape moves forward a little bit then rewinds itself. If I look into the viewfinder while in the camera/record mode I see what would be recorded for a second or two. The screen goes blank and then the picture comes back on for a second or two and this just keeps cycling on and off.
Can this be fixed or do I need to make this camera a boat anchor?????
