I've personally had 6-7 Sony camcorders in my current housing over the years ranging from 8 to HDV. I had just finished a night dive here and was trying to capture my HDV footage from my Sony HC-7 to my computer for editing. I turned on the camcorder without even trying to eject the tape and got the C:32:11 message. What the? The tape was still inside the camcorder! I've had sony handycam c this error message (relating to the tape transport mechanism's door) on my mini-DV (Sony TRV-17) a number of times, but it was always fixable by eliminating the power source and reaffixing it. Not so with my HC-7. I have tried everything I've read on the Internet about this error and nothing has worked. I can't use the d@mned camcorder or edit any of my HDV footage. When I searched the Internet for specific fixes, I did see a number of ways to "remedy" this including banging on the camcorder bottom. What struck me was how common this error is not just with Sony's HC series, but a wide range of Sony camcorders. I have heard that Sony will "repair" what many think is an engineering defect for a mere $200-500. I bought Sony camcorders because they were reliable. I guess quality there has declined as with many other products. I wrote the CEO of Sony America a long letter outlining the many problems I've encountered with the HC-7 since I bought it. So far the letter hasn't filtered down to someone within the organization who can actually take time to write and respond. Anyone else here with the C:32:11 error message? Have you found a fix that works for the HC series short of taking a hammer to it (as one poster did... with success!). drbill, Aug 19, 2010 drbill, Aug 19, 2010 #1 Frazier Nivens Professional Photographer # of Dives: I'm a Fish!

You may be asking yourself. Did I do something wrong? Can I fix it myself? Is my camcorder really broken? The answer to this is simple. If your Sony camcorder displays a tape transport or mechanical error code always try resetting the camcorder. This is done by removing the battery or ac power, wait 10 seconds, reapply the battery or ac power and try again. If it still goes into error try another tape. The camcorder will not always display an exact error code. Sometimes you may see an error message such as, “Reinsert the cassette", on the LCD screen. This is the camcorders way of saying, “Take the tape out and try again." Try reloading the same tape as well as a new tape. If the camcorder is still going into error this means it is time to send it in for service or repair. The camcorder may also sometimes display a “Reattach Power Source." This is the camcorders way of saying,"Try resetting my system,so I can try again." Many people mistaken this error and think they have a problem with the battery or ac adapter. This is not true and has nothing to do with your battery or ac adapter. Reset the camcorder by removing the battery or ac power, wait 10 second, reapply the battery or ac power. If the error reappears the unit needs to be serviced or repaired. Here is a list of Sony error codes for mechanical problems, tape transport problems and lens or focus problems.

Just because this error code displays does not mean that the camcorder has actually experienced condensation, moisture or dew. It can also be a de
