OLympus error code 3c85

I don't have a solution but I have the same problem, I think the shutter is stuck. I get the error D : 8805
Really sucks considering it worked earlier and I JUST got it...

the lens may be stuck ... that is not coming out or not returning in either condition causes it to do something like that ,i.e blingink red light or an error code etc .... solution is that you'll need to open up the camera with a set of precission screw drivers and manually turn in or out the lens to start it back in operation either ways its a bit technical if you never did it before ....could be caused by moisture getting into the camera .....

If you go to the menu and turn the menu option of ALL RESET from ON to OFF it should retain the image quality setting that you have selected to allow for more images to be stored on the memory card

could be in the memory card, format the memory in camera

Try taking memory card to someone with a card reader on their computer, if it's going to work then a reader will get it to work. If it doesn't work then reformatting is the least expensive option, unless you take it to Specialists to have it analyzed. If card won't format then it probabaly has gone bad.

Problem Solved

Firmware update needed if you have this problem ....

I got it fixed in a foto-shop .... they did it via usb + Internet ... it´s fixed in 15 min.

Shawna, Since your camera is still under warranty, best thing will be sending it to the appropriate factory service center for repair the problem.

Can you get a memory card reader that works for a Mac? If so then loading pic's to the 'puter through that route Flashing red and green lights have a meaning- what does the manual say?[Check the more comprehensive manual on the Software disk] You could buy[or borrow] another card- nothing wrong with having more that one. Also try the card in another camera and a fresh card in yours[Take it a photo shop to try this]

Red-eye is actually caused by the light from the flash bouncing off the back of the retina and picking up the color red from the blood vessels.
