Can't find manual, SD card unusable. HELP!!!

I bought this camera used, so it has no manual and I can't find one online. Every time I put in a 4gb SD card the camera states that it is unable to use card. I formatted it with my computer and it still states this. Do I need a different kind of card? Is there some way to get the camera to format it? Thanks.

The X1 works with MMC and SD cards. Your 4GB card is actually an SDHC card. While it fits into the slot, it is electronically incompatible. You need to use an SD card, 2GB and smaller.

You may download a copy of the manual from here.

    Thank you!!! I did just discover that I need a 2gb or lower on a review site, but the manual will be of great use.

SOURCE: Konica Minolta Dimage Z2 camera will not read any SD card

hi there
you don't say how big the card is, my guess is its bigger than 2 gig which is the maximum allowable size for that camera.

SOURCE: Unable to use card

What size card is it? You should go to Konica Minolta USA Web-Site and look up your camera under discontinued products to see what the largest card your camera can handle as you may have a card that is to large for your camera format ....

Gateway digital camera DC-T50 5.25 megapixels put new memory card and a card error message appears

The camera uses SD cards. I assume your new card is 8GB, not 8MB as you stated. If this is the case, it's an SDHC card. While it fits into the slot, it is electronically incompatible and will not work in the SD-only camera. You need to use SD cards, 2GB and smaller.

If possible, please return the EMTEC SD card and try a different brand. Not all brands of memory cards work with every electronic device. If you have further problems, please feel free to call us at Intova directly at +1 808 837-0074 or email [email protected] .

The camera only takes SD cards up to 2GB. Why don't you have the manual? Most companies are putting the manual on the CD that comes with their cameras to save paper.

Do a BACKUP (Camera's internal memory & Memory card) and then format both of them and see whether the problem still persists. I think your camera's build in memory is full. Most of the camera's internal memory is not too big and you get these kind if massages. If you are not using an additional memory card (e.g. SD Card), I would advise you to use one.

Good Luck!

4 GB doesnt work

I believe this camera only supports SD/MMC cards, not SDHC cards. Go to the kodak site to see the detailed specs. Not all devices support SDHC - most new ones do - but some only support the older SD cards.

SDHC card won't work

Your card is an SDHC, your camera supports only SD/MMC cards. I know this because i found thisp ostlooking for a way to make it accept SDHC cards, a software update could easily work in theory but someone would have to write that update. Technology changes fast doesnt it.

Cant use 4gb sd card in my camera why?

The D50 works with SD cards. Your 4GB card is actually an SDHC card. While it fits into the slot, it will only work with devices specifically designed to accept SDHC cards. The D50 wasn't. It only works with SD cards, 2GB and smaller.
