Canon S2 IS "memory card error"

Hi there and thanks for your response.

Yes I have 4 different cards. They are different sizes and brands and all were working just prior to the problem. I have formatted them through the camera as a standard format and also the "low level" format. Interesting that it will still format the card but can't read it? Also done on my PC but makes no difference? One of the cards I haven't touched and it still has photos on it but obviously these can't be viewed on the camera as it won't read the card. They can be accessed through the PC though so are definitely there. Very frustrating!!

Peter

No, the camera cannot be infected with a virus. It would seem that it was a coincidence that the memory card issues started at the same time.

However, I would ask a couple of questions:

I note that you state "every memory card." I assume that you have multiple memory cards. And I assume that all of them were working properly before the onset of this problem?


Have you attempted to access the menu and format the memory card since this has begun?
