hdr sr7: Sony HDR-SR7 LCD replacement

Sat, 15 Mar 2025 01:40:22 -0700

I learnt from ifixit how to - and was able to successfully - remove the LCD screen from my HDR-SR7. However, I have been unable to find a replacement LCD panel in any aftermarket (eBay, Ali Express, etc.).

I was able to find LCD screens for Sony HDR-HC1E HVR-A1C HC1E A1C DCR- HC42E HC43E HC46E HC48E HC90E HC96E on Ali Express. Those screens are the same size (2.7”) as HDR-SR7, but of a different resolution: HDR-SR7 LCD is 211K pixels, while the others are 123.2K pixels. The position of the cables are the same.

Question: what will happen if i replace the sony hdr-sr7 lcd screen with sony DCR-HC96E lcd screen?

Will the LCD screen display any picture at all?

Will the picture be the same, but only of a lower resolution?

Will the picture be cropped in or cropped out?

My HDR-SR7 vibrates very rapidly. People have said its due to the sensor getting stuck but the motor keeps running. Is there a way to fix this at home?
