The Z650 is designed to work with SD cards. Your 8GB card is actually an SDHC (Secure Digital High Capacity) card. While an SDHC card will fit into an SD slot, it will not work properly. You'll have to stay with SD cards 2GB and smaller.

SOURCE: My Kodak P850 do not accept SD cards 4 or 8GB,

Technically speaking, SD cards only go up to 2GB. (Actually, some very rare 4GB SD cards exist, but I doubt you have one of those.) Cards 4GB and up are SDHC (Secure Digital High Capacity) cards. Your camera was designed before the SDHC specs, and thus is not compatible with SDHC cards. This is not something that can be changed in firmware, since there is a hardware compatibility issue.

SDHC devices will accept SD cards, but the opposite does not hold true. SD devices will not accept SDHC cards.

Formatting sd card 8gb for kodak cx7430

The CX7430 uses SD cards. Your 8GB card is actually an SDHC card. While it fits into the slot, it is electronically incompatible and will not work with this camera. You need to use SD cards, 2GB and smaller.

MY CAMERA IS A Z650 KODAK EASYSHARE, MY DAUGHTER LOST MY OLD MEMORY CARD SO I WENT OUT AND BOUGHT A NEW MEMORY CARD BUT MY CAMERA SAYS IT NEEDS FORMATTING AND IT WONT LET ME ALSO IT SAYS INTERNAL MEMORY IS...

Just as I suggested. The Z650 works with SD cards, not SDHC cards. Most likely your old card was 2GB or smaller and your new card is 4GB or larger. Try using a 2GB SD card.
You can clear internal memory by deleting the pictures it contains. Download them to your computer first if you want to preserve them. You can get rid of all of them in one shot by using the "Format" command in the Setup menu.

I have a Kodak CX7330 camera that won't format an 8gb sd card. I can format it on my laptop, but the camera says it still needs to be formatted.

Check your manual to see if your camera can use SDHC cards which an 8GB card would be. Some cameras can only use SD cards.

Hi, i have a kodak easyshare z650 an i put a new sdhc card 8gb it not the camera not working i need a solution so pleased give meone thanks

Just use a 2GB "SD" card,,The Z650 will not accept any of the newer, faster cards available today. Just carry a spare, if you plan on using your camera for lots of pics/videos. Cheer's, Andy.
