I got this very serious problem just when I about to start shooting... I power on the camera...
The symptoms:
- Click, clack sounds continuously (seems like some mechanical stuffs jammed!)
- LCD screen showing all sorts of funny images
- Whole screen green
- Sometimes with a white box with my image blur not in focus
- Warning message : Warning : Focus Lock !
I tried to change to VCR mode, remove battery, Cycle the power. Sometimes it's gone, but it does come back again ..
With this situation I was able to shoot 1 event and on the second event it came back! So I send in to Panasonic service.
The technician mentioned that he did some PC alignment on it and said it's ok to go.. He did mention to me to switch on the machine for long hours (ageing test).
Now I am kind of worried whether would the problem come back again ? and has anyone of u ever had this problem and your solution ?
