I have a Sharp VL-NZ105 MiniDV camcorder and the right side of the screen is dimmer than the left. Also, the unit continues recording or playing back, but the screen goes black after about 2 minutes. This means that I have to stop recording every 2 minutes and turn the camera off and back on if I want to see what I'm recording. The word "Lamp" often appears on the screen. I've tried adjusting the settings and removing/replacing the battery. The same things occur if it is running strictly from the outlet. The camera is barely over a year old. Any ideas?
