I JUST BOUGHT THIS CAMERA...DOES ANYONE KNOW IF IM SUPPOSE TO BUY AN ADDITIONAL MEMEORY CARD OR SOMETHING FOR IT TO WORK CAUSE AFTER TAKING A PIC...IT WONT GO INTO PLAYBACK MODE FOR ME TO VIEW PICS

No not at all. All phones, all cameras come with a limited amount of memory to allow you to take a few pictures. Did you buy this used? If so toto view all pictures/view pictures and delete a few to free up memory. This way you can be certain it's not the camera that's defective. If it works then of course you'll need a memory card so you don't have to keep running to your computer to upload your shots to free up memory.hope this helps

I took pictures in the raw setting now it wont let me view them on my labtop?

You need to convert the raw pics to jpegs in order to view them. Some cameras allow you to do that right in the camera. You should have received software with your camera that allows you to do that. If you have Photoshop Elements on your computer, it comes with a raw converter. You need to check your camera's owner manual for specific instructions.

Canon 40D LCD Wont come on buSY flashes in view finder

Okay, this is simple. Your camera can take several pictures at one time in a burst. However when you release the shutter button your processor takes a second to actually SAVE the pictures to the card in the camera. One thing than has helped me in my wedding photography business is to buy the fastest speed cards I can find. It significantly reduced my "busy" time.
