Can anyone help with this problem?
I've got an IT Works DC-6370 that I've had for about a year and a
half. It has new batteries in it.However, when I turn it on, it turns on then shuts itself off again in about 4 seconds.Sometimes it does this without retracting the lens. I've tried new battereis and plugging in via an adaptor. As it doesn't stay on along enough to look at any settings at all, I'm a bit stuck for what to do. The manual says for instruction/ driver updates etc refer to the web site but there's no website address given. I've looked at KesaUK (stated on bottom of camera, which seems to be the holding company for Comet UK. (I actually bought it at Lidl). Any (useful) comments would be welcome. |

I have a 7 Mp camera that I bought in lidl, a nytech www.nytech.de which I have for a year and I'm happy with.(180 euros).Also my romanian friend bought a lesser one (100 euros).Have you tried www.lidl.co.uk or whatever?Have you still got the original receipt, so that you can ask a cashier?Maybe a technically challenged friend?

The symptoms suggest that there is something physically wrong with your camera, and a software update isn't likely to fix it. Your camera seems to be the same as the Premier DC-6370. It is not a standard brand. You could check with a camera shop about a repair, but it is likely to cost you as much as a new camera. If you buy a replacement, I'd suggest that you stick with one of the established brands. |

Hi The problem with this type of "Unknown" make of camera, ( and there a lot of them being advertised and sold in the type of outlets which don't carry "Known" makes), is that they are usually unrepairable, because there is no availability of spare parts. If you replace it, do so with a "Known" make. Roy G |
