Can the sony p-41 operate on internal memory rather than on just the memory stick?

You don't need to remove the internal memory. Simply insert the memory stick, and the camera will store new images and videos to the stick instead of the internal memory.

Hi,

You can copy all the images from the Internal Memory to a Memory Stick Duo media using the COPY option in the Memory Stick Tool Menu option.

Please insert the Memory Stick Duo media with sufficient free capacity into the Camera.
Select MENU--> Settings-->Memory Stick Tool-->COPY-->OK.

The original images in the Internal memory retain after copying. You may have to delete the contents of the internal Memory. Remove the Memory Stick media after copying, then format the internal memory. FORMAT in Internal Memory Tool.

You can only copy the images to the new folder created on the Memory Stick Duo which is created automatically. You cannot copy the images to a specific folder.

Hi,

Even if the Memory Stick Duo is inserted in the Camera, the images will not be saved in the Memory Stick Duo until the capacity of the Internal Memory is full. To save the images in the Internal Memory to the Memory Stick Duo, select the EXPORT option from the Viewing Menu of the Camera. Touch the MENU icon when viewing images to select the IMPORT option.
There are two option in the Viewing Menu of the Camera (Export and Import). Export option is to save from Internal Memory to Memory Stick and Import is for saving from Memory Stick to the Internal Memory.
This Camera is having 4GB of Internal Memory, hence the images captured will get saved in the Internal Memory first and then to Memory Stick once the Internal Memory is full.

Yes, you need to have memory stick because camera has limited internal memory that can store few pictures only.
Put new memory card, format it through camera Menu and copy internal memory pictures to memory stick, take our memory card from camera and delete internal memory pictures either one by one or format internal memory through camera Menu.
Thanks.

If you normally upload your pictures by connecting via the USB port, remove the memory stick before connecting the camera to the computer. If you normally upload your pictures by putting the memory stick into a card reader, use the camera's memory stick tool to copy the pictures from internal memory to memory stick.

In this case, I suggest that you format the Internal Memory of the Camcorder using the Camcorder as follows:

Touch HOME -> Manage Media -> Media Format -> touch the recording Media to be formatted[INT. MEMORY] or [Memory Stick] -> YES -> YES -> OK.

Formatting the Internal Memory or Memory Stick will delete all the data saved in the Internal Memory or in the Memory Stick.

You may also refer the page # 36 in the Manual of the Camcorder for more information about this.

Please download the manual (Operating Guide) of the Camcorder from this link:

Good Luck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Put memory stick in camera, power up, press Menu >> Copy >> OK
That will copy internal memory pictures on memory stick.

Could be that the camera does not support a 2G stick. Check the operators manual.

DSC-W80 sybershot camera has facility when you insert Memory Stick in its slot, it automaticaly selects this memory card and starts saving data on it and internal memory got suspended.
Pls check memory stick 2GB and inert it correctly in memory slot in camera.

If they mendted it and you still have the problem. Then they did not do a proper job- did they? So send it back with full detail of the last repair ans tell them to do it properly at their own expense
