Jan Repair question?

[Duncan Boggs]

After speaking with several people at the Panasonic switchboards I finally was able to get the number for the Panasonic owned service center on Cahuenga in LA. Thier # is 323 436 3507 and the address is 3330 Cahuenga Blvd. West 90068. All but one of the Panasonic switchboard people had not heard of Video Clinic. The one that did said she sent lots of people there without ever having any problems. Also, the service center on Cahuenga said that Video Clinic is a registered Panasonic service center and should be able to handle the problem. My impression is that, just to be safe, the camera should go to the Panasonic owned center on Cahuenga since thier seems to be some uncertainty among those at Panasonic about where it should go. Probably because of this particular type of repair on this particular product being that it seems like the work should be done on Panasonic’s dime due to the faulty back plate.

Just to follow up. After speaking and emailing with several people at Panasonic, they did take care of the problem through The Video Clinic on Wilshire in LA who did a good job with the repair. Our faith continues with Panasonic’s customer service and products.

Hey Jan ,

I had a number of questions , my 1394 connection is damaged, I live in Whistler where is the best place to get it repaired and how much is this likely to cost me ?

Is there a cheaper option using p2 card readers ?

Could I possibly get your email add as I have a number of points not relevant to this thread .

Thanks for your time ,

Ok, so this might not be a HVX 200 repair question; however, I wanted to know why Panny hasn’t developed their own P2 Repair software? Instead, I have to dish out more money on third part software to repair a supposedly “Solid State” format.

I don’t get it. Jan–any ideas?
