Dear Newsgroup,
after some years of trouble free operation my Sony DCR-TR8100E Digital8 Camcorder now developed the annoying C:21 error. Of course there is NO moisture anywhere in the camcorder or the room now for some weeks, so the sensor must be dead. I'm fairly experienced in electronics, so i want to replace (better yet: disable) it myself. Unfortunately here in Germany Sony in its infinite wisdom wants me to send the Camcorder to them. I can already imagine the bill... They will not provide me with a service manual. Can anybody help ?
Thanks,
Carsten
