Re: Sd Cards

how old is the camera, thats a small card by today's standard. Do you have a card reader on your computer and does the computer see the card. It may need formatting or it may be damaged.
If the camera is really old it might not see new cards bigger than a certain size. Do you know anyone with a camera which takes the same cards, ask them if you can try theirs in your camera (make sure they have taken all their photos off first, just in case).
Don't buy from a high street shop (expensive) or Ebay (potential fakes), use an online shop, I use 7dayshop.com who are in Jersey they are generally cheapest.

Re: Sd Cards

Hi

Tried the camera last night, when the internal memorey is full it will still take photos but it does not store them in the sd card. There is no record of the photos taken anywere. If i put the lock on the sd card the camera does recognise it.

Thanks tc

Re: Sd Cards

I'd just stick thee new card in and see what happens - did you format the card as FAT format?
