I have a Fuji Finepix A605 and have recently bought a new 1gb (M) xd card for it as I;m due to go on holiday in the next week or so. The camera tells me 'Card not Initialised', which I take to mean that it should be formatted. I have tried this and it appears to work. However, I then review my photo's and it tells me 'read error'. I turn it off then on again and have lost all photos and it goes back to the 'card not initialised' message. I have tried to re-format the card several times now but the same keeps happening. My 16mb card is fine!! I'm at my wits end......... Thanks. Simon.
Try updating the firmware.. check the fuji website

Thanks - any ideas??
Fuji reckon that a 1gb card isn't supported!
I have exactly the same problem as spgoldy re xd card. I am working with a 512mb M-type.
The camera tells me 'Card not Initialised', which I take to mean that it should be formatted. It formats OK and will take a photo, but when I review it tells me 'read error'. I turn it off then on again and have lost all photos and it goes back to the 'card not initialised' message.
I see someone has mentioned firmware updates but I am unsure what these are and nothing looks appropriate in the relevant area of the Fuji site.
Help please.
