  • canovision 8, model e67 camcorder, wavy lines in video

    unit displays wavy lines when when turned on, also recorded tapes when played back on the cam looks like a scrambled cable channel, i figure could be dryed out smd caps,but without a schematic i am not sure

    yes you are right, these models suffer badly with the surface mounted electrolytics leaking. the problem here is that the electrolyte tends to eat away through the tiny copper tracks on the pcb and you get open circuits occurring. they are notoriously difficult to repair as you cannot easily see the tracks well. with a lot of luck (and you will need luck) none of the electrolytics will have damaged the pcb, but in about 90 percent of the camcorders ive repaired including other brands they have not been so lucky. sorry to be so negative. it may be best to consider purchasing a replacement.
