My Sony camera has failed, TRV19E, I suspect it's the optical sensor,
Sony want the thick end of 200 quid for a fixed price repair and for
that money I would rather buy a new camera.

So can anyone*recommend someone in either Surrey or Essex who could fix
it for a*reasonable price ?

TIA.

No chance of getting parts off the scrapheap? ;o)

There's been a recall of Sony equipment recently - not sure if yours will
apply. It's something to do with operation in low or high temperatures. The
link I got was:
http://phpbb.ulead.com.tw/EN/viewtopic.php?p=37893

which includes the TRV19E but it's not on the link that Terry supplies. I'll
ask him how he added that one to the list, but it's over a year ago.

Got it.
The page where you can see the CCD fault in action is:
http://www.imaging-resource.com/NEWS/1128958202.html
The page where you check your model is:
http://www.css.ap.sony.com/usefulinf...Camcorder.html
the TRV19E is under DCR-TRV. There's also a link to the support network on
that page.

In article ,

You would be very surprised what you can find, or maybe you wouldn't !
