What would cause white horizontal bands on JVC GR-D33U digital camera LCD monitor?
Our JVC GR-D33U Camcorder is almost two years old, and all of a sudden the LCD monitor has begun acting up (see link below for reference photos).
We get horizontal, white bands on a darkened (black) monitor. Occasionally we'll get a clear picture, but only for about 5 minutes before the white bands return. Other times the monitor will look like a distorted black and white picture wherein no object can clearly be seen, but the shape of what's on the screen will shift (reminds me of a less grainy ultrasound picture).
When the camcorder is initially powered on, sometimes the monitor will
read "LENS CAP", indicating that the lens cap needs to be removed, even
though it already has been. View monitor: http://www.users.qwest.net/~rnapoli/jvcGR-D33U.html
Factory trained camera tech here. I own one of these cameras and they are actually quite good for their price.
However, several recent models of JVC camcorders had an inherent defect from the factory, including the GR-D33US. The defect caused a high failure rate of the (Sony-made) CCD image sensors in these cams. The symptoms on your webpage are typical of the failure. JVC has posted a notice on their website stating that they will cover this defect under an special warranty if the camera is sent directly to them. See the listed link below.
Also, the triangles you mention are the low-contrast indicators which show up if the camera cannot auto-focus. See page 31 of your owner's manual (available on the JVC website). With the CCD defect, of course, it cannot focus properly.
Good luck!
