    Hi,

    Just got my TRV33 and wondered if any other owners were a bit shocked a the amount of noise the camera generates when theres a tape in? Or is this generally the case with camcorders these days? :confused:

    I can't say that I've particularly noticed much noise.

    I'd say my TRV33 is a lot quieter than my previous Hi8 Sony, and about the only noises I hear are the 'bleeps' when operating the touch screen.

    Do you mean noise that you hear when operating it, or noise that the on-board mic picks up?

    Is the noise actually coming from the camcorder or the tape? It may be that you've got a dodgy tape in there. Have you tried it with a different tape?

    yeah a couple.. i've got it with me today so i'll try another tape.
    the noise it makes kinda reminds me of the sound a knackered hard drive makes

    Could be the mike picking up motor noise.
