I have not used this camera for about three years. My son wanted to use it for school project. The play back works fine. When the camera is turned on, the scrren as look in the view finder is dark. It almost look like that the shutter did not open but it is open. Any ideas on what may be wrong with this camcorder? Thanks in advance for your help.

Unfortunately it probably has dozens of bad capacitors. Unless this camera has some sort of extreme sentimental value or something it's probably not worth repair. It can be repaired, but the amount of labor involved would cost you many hundreds of dollars.
Thanks....
