Hey all,

Got a problem with the insertion of a cassette. If I power on the cam and eject the cassette compartment then close it without a tape it closes fine, however when I insert a tape and try to close it, it closes for a sec.then ejects without trying to fully seat itself. Called Sharp support which wasn't much help, he had no idea.Simply referred me to a repair shop which I need to ship it to N.Y. form FL. HA! Anyone else out there come accross this one? If so help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Ski

you have to eject the cassest and just let it sit a while for the dew to dry.

I have the identical problem... What was the outcome with your cam corder? I am just looking into it now... Did a search on the web and here I am...
