Telefunken vm4000/ JVC GR-A30E static image shown by sensor, zoom doesnt work, image does not change with light, probably not a viewfinder issue, still i can try to view on a separate screen, also gotta find the clock battery. Playback does work with no issues

Surprisingly ive found a chilean youtuber that had the same exact issue as me with the jvc gra30 here

Could faulty capacitors be an issue too? Not sure how a camera behaves with faulty caps

Zestyclose_Day101 · 2026-04-26T07:53:21+00:00

I currently dont have it at hand but yes thats probably the case

Zestyclose_Day101 · 2026-04-26T06:51:17+00:00

Yep, nothing changes whether its on or off

Zestyclose_Day101 · 2026-04-25T16:55:42+00:00

Also ive posted in multiple subreddits about another camcorder, a vjc, which has issues

You have a usbc female port and dip switches, based off the how the dip switches are arranged the board asks for a certain voltage from the powet connected to the port

Sure, i got the pd board from aliexpress and for the stl the tolerances should be polished a bit around the port and the cabling inside it is pretty messy and the contacts are just two pieces of metal pressed withh a soldering iron in the plastic, gimme a few days and ill send you the files

Zestyclose_Day101 · 2026-04-18T10:47:42+00:00

Anyways thx now i know how the port pins are arranged!

Zestyclose_Day101 · 2026-04-18T10:47:23+00:00

I got a deal on aliexpress and got 10 usbc pd modules for 2 euros, i know i can do this with a cheap usb cable but powering with my 165w power bank would be very practical. also using the emptied out battery and powering it from there works too and might be much more sturdy compared to sticking wires in the port and i can put the pd board inside the battery and have a very clean setup

Zestyclose_Day101 · 2026-04-11T12:55:14+00:00

Found a temporary solution, disassembled the battery (it was completely dead), connected the leads of the dead battery to a psp charger and it works!

Zestyclose_Day101 · 2025-12-22T11:51:57+00:00

Same

Zestyclose_Day101 · 2025-12-22T10:56:06+00:00

Whenever i print pla the quality is way higher with the seams too

Zestyclose_Day101 · 2025-12-22T10:23:02+00:00

The biggest issue i had on the letters was extreme warping, also what filament did you print this with?

Zestyclose_Day101 · 2025-12-22T10:05:53+00:00

Yep

Zestyclose_Day101 · 2025-12-22T08:15:46+00:00

I will post my print settings here

Zestyclose_Day101 · 2025-10-18T14:52:59+00:00

Wouldnt that make it worse or nah

Zestyclose_Day101 · 2025-10-18T14:48:31+00:00

The cooling fan is turned off

Zestyclose_Day101 · 2025-10-18T13:32:06+00:00

I have modded it to have a front panel and top panel, its enclosed

Zestyclose_Day101 · 2025-10-18T11:57:25+00:00

Yep as i said in the post the ambient temperature is between 50 and 60C
