Problem: My camcorder won't focus on close-up objects

There are 0 comments on this problem.

Solution 1: Your camcorder's autofocus is probably having problems locking on to objects in the foreground. In the settings menu, choose the macro function where available. You'll see it shown with an icon of a small flower.

Problem: Out of space.

Solution 1: You need to back up your recordings. Copy them to a computer. If you record them to a DVD, don't rely on this to store your precious videos. Recordable DVDs degrade over time.

Problem: Battery keeps running out too quickly.

There are 0 comments on this problem.

Solution 1: Rechargable batteries have a limited life and they hold their charge less and less as their life goes on. You probably need a new battery.

To help your battery last longer, try to charge it fully every time and don't stop it charging when it's not finished.

If your unit is brand new, it might have a faulty battery. Contact your retailer.

Problem: I can't watch videos on my computer

There are 0 comments on this problem.

Solution 1: Your computer might not have the right software installed to watch the kind of video your camera takes. Install the software that came with your camera, or as an alternative, Google "VLC" for a great video player that will install on most computers and play almost all kinds of video.

Problem: I can't transfer videos to the computer via USB.

There are 0 comments on this problem.

Solution 1: 1) Check your USB cable is plugged in fully.
2) Check your camera is connected to a power source, the best is mains power (even if your camera has a good battery).
3) You might have to put the camera into "play" more (rather than "record" mode.

Problem: When camera is plugged into charge the red light flashes on and off but the camera remains dead. Either with or without mains connection cannot switch it on or find any sign of life ! Could this just be the battery. The camera was quite new when it stopped working and has been in its box for the last 2 years.

Problem: Camera will not turn on with activating either the power button or the LCD monitor. A new battery was fully charged and that didn't help. The camera hasn't been used for about a year and was stored with the battery removed. Help?

- I have the same exact problem and was wondering if there is a reset that might get it back in operation?

Problem: After a few hours of use my Panasonic HC V100 (and a touch screen version of the same model) would not realiably (or not at all) start, when the screen was opened.

5 seconds or 20 seconds with some tapping seemed to be the trick, which suggests a loose connection or dry joint issue.

What is the solution, and is there a simple "unscrew and look" type fix.
