#Canon vixia hf r600 driver how to#

The reason I contacted you here is if you know the way how to disassemble the camcorder, so that to reach exactly the motor system. So I think that something around the motor is dislocated/displaced and makes random contact. If I make any vertical movement, something obviously makes a contact and the noise appears again. But I need to handle and move the camcorder very gently.

After some shaking back and forth the noise stops and the camcorder works well, even after full zoom-in and -out. But the terrible inner noise appears randomly. Good luck!ДЄctually, after oiling the front visible part of the rails, I get no more blank screen. I only took photos as I took it apart incase I forgot where something went. I wish I had taken more photos but I wasn't planning on making a tutorial. There's a copper hook on the lens cover that it was screwed into. You can see where it went in the photo where I'm oiling with the q-tip. That is the only silver screw you will need to remove, leave the others. One other screw that I should note is when you are ready to remove the main lens cover, there will be a silver screw on the right side. Here are a couple photos of screws that are hidden that you will need to remove:ДЄBOVE: 1 screw that you can only see when the battery is removed. It can be tricky to remove and put back in and you may be able to work with it connected the whole time. There is a ribbon that connects the LCD panel to the main body of the camera. Here's a video clip we took of the lens now working and the ticking noise is gone.Д®ach panel of the camera overlaps other panels so you do need to strip down the camera all the way to the point I showed in the photos. Remove 3 lens screws and oil the rails that the lens rides on with sewing machine oil.

TAKE OUT ALL VISIBLE SCREWS AND DO NOT FORCE ANY PARTS WITHOUT LOOKING AT WHAT IS HOLDING THEM BACK (usually a hidden screw).ДЇrom this point on I'll post a series of photos to help you disassemble and a few videos at the end to show results. TAKE YOUR TIME! WORK AT IT LIKE A PUZZLE. Here we taped each screw to it's mapped number. We used tape to a sheet of numbered paper to make sure we didn't mess up which screw goes where. It is critical to map where you took each screw out. What we found is that most screws were of unequal length. What we decided to do was take apart the camera screw by screw and assign each screw a number while drawing a rough diagram of where each screw goes. The exact set I purchased below.ДЄt this point if you do not have a lot of patience and shakey hands, just take your camera in. I went and bought a set at Home Depot pretty cheap even though I just needed that one size. You're going to need a micro phillips screwdriver with a head size of PH000. I didn't realize how easily the lens drive moves until I physically moved it so this may be a simple solution. Try it over a few times if it does not work. With the power off and a battery in, tap the camera on the battery end to scoot the lens from the front of the camera towards the back. I didn't try this but it's worth a try for a quick fix. It is supposed to retract when you turn the camera off but mine seemed stuck. What happened to my Canon Vixia HF20 is that the focus lens was stuck at the front of the camera. NOW BEFORE YOU TAKE ANYTHING APART TRY THIS! If you have the black screen and the ticking noise I guarantee it's a stuck focus lens. The LCD is easier to replace only only costs about $30 max off of Ebay.

What I have found is that people with the black screen issue either have a loose ribbon connection from the LCD display to the PC board behind the LCD display or a focus drive malfunction which is what I had. The Canon Vixia video cameras all seem to be similarly constructed the past few years so there is not much difference between the mechanical things that can go wrong. These cameras go together like a puzzle but after working your way through it so many times like the repair shops do, they are probably laughing all the way to the bank. I hunted around for all the possible information I could and came up with very little other than a rough diagram of the way the camera goes together. All the video camera repair places online seemed not to give any exact cost and you know that means you're screwed. I looked online for people with the same problem and found this video with comments under it with people that had the exact same problem but there was no solution. What I noticed is that when I powered it on it would have a ticking noise as if a motor was jammed. I would get a black screen when turning it on and then it seemed to freeze and I could not turn it off without taking the battery off. I have had it for 3 years and I love the camera but it started to act up on me this year with what seemed to be a glitch with focusing. I have a Canon Vixia HF20 that started to give me trouble.
