I am looking for any camcorder experts that could help me! I have years of footage on my Hitachi HDD/DVD camcorder, it has no power and will not charge with no battery. How can I get my footage out? I am no longer caring if the camcorder is broke in the process. Are there any services I can send my camcorder to?
 
It sounds like it might be the charger that is faulty, not the camera.

If there is a cable with mains plug, check the fuse is OK - swap it with another one you know works.

Next step is to get a replacement charger or power supply. You may be able to get a universal power supply that will work and allow you to get the videos off the camera. Try your local Maplin store, as they sell them.

Failing that, it is possible to remove the hard drive and download it, but I seem to remember it is a service department job, as the files are not in a standard format.
