The camera has quit on me and I tried a new battery, using DC power and it won't turn on. My IT guy is going to look at it, but in the meantime I really really need the tape inside the camera. Is there a failsafe to eject the tape?
Is this a good question?

cindy, really not much of a tape, since it is a DVD. Anyhow, according to the service manual you can:
3. TO TAKE OUT A DISC WHEN DISC COVER DOES NOT OPEN (FORCE OPEN)
1 Remove the cabinet (upper) assembly (E).
2 Remove the cabinet (R) assembly.
3 Remove the VC heat sink, VC radiation sheet.
4 Remove the lens section, F panel section.
5 Push the portion A in the direction of the arrow and open the disc cover.
you can utilize these guides Sony Handycam DCR-DVD103

No, it is motor controlled via power. Your tech can probably take apart the outer housing and retrieve the tape first, then move on to find the problem with the camera. ~ please don't try the hammer and fury method ;)
