  • JVC GY-HD 100’s falling appart

    I have 2 GY-HD 100’s that are falling apart that I cant get in for service because im too busy. 1. the auto focus stripped out on the 3rd job it was on.1. has a broken sensor that tells the camera when the viewfinder door is closed so its in “flip out” moed all the time. and the third problem is I have at least 2 maybe more dead pixels in the camera. Does anyone know what kind of turn around time JVC has? I am in the middle of my wedding season amd the dredded 7/7/07 is coming up in a few weeks and I need to be at capacity for it. Love the cameras (when they work)

    one time they got mine back in 2 weeks for a software update another time they screwed me over with for
    three weeks with out fixing I had to have it sent back unfixed as I recall for a shoot I don’t remember or
    baby it was a month when they did fix it. That’s not cool I have shot weddings with the 100, 110 and
    recently shot an event with the HD250. I will be renting it again for a wedding in a week or so. The y
    seam like sturdy cameras how is it you are have such problems?
    I have been disappointed with the pixels getting stuck on but just read on here how to reset them. I was
    going to buy one but I not so sure now. I love the images. the HD250’s 60p looks fantastic. I mostly do 24p
    for weddings though. How about your self?
