I was so excited after getting the C1 after 4weeks.
Charged unit..
My first dumb mistake is hooking it up to the cpu and try it as webcam..
C1 does not want to be found as web cam even following instructions.
oh, well....unplug from cpu..
Press C1 pwr button ..no led light...dead...
tried several times..different keys etc...no help
ok pressed the "reset" button at the back..
clicked several times..
hold it for 5 seconds....none worked..still dead
swap out card...same thing.. dead...
under desparation
disconnect battery is last try...
I openned the rear plate...saw the battery connector bury deep inside..
Has to move the guts out to reach the battery plug.
I was very careful
yet..
The slide switch broke on me. It is a very fragile slider. I'm really mad at myself..
it has a very thin slider notch blade...
(Be very carefull with slide switch....)...WARNing to new owners.
yes, I read what "Kamkar1" warning..but I was desparated
now I have no switch..it stucked in single shot mode and not in cycle mode.
yes..disconnecting the battery and reconnecting it reset the unit...unit is back alive...
Put it back together...watch out the grey pads.....very easy to crumble...
I wonder what happened to the unit when I was trying the webcam mode.
C1 in power off..plug in cpu..correct cable
I hold "shutter"..and press the "power"..button to turn on as in instruction
...no webcam but ..I think this key combo hanged the unit.
However, C1 has very nice picture.
