canon ZR40 digital camcorder

Dec 29, 2010 7:34AM PST

My son just got out of the Army and his Canon camcorder tape receptacle is stuck partially open. It will not move in or out. There is a thin flat metal piece with a hole at the end of it poking out the bottom left side just under the "do not press this part' sticker. I can't move this piesce at all and i think this piece being jammed is why the tape mechanism won't budge. Is there anyway to get at this part or free it up. Since there are no adaptors to play the tapes,I am trying to fiz it for him to show us his military tapes. Thanks. Craig
