I keep getting a card error and I have tried 9 dif cards including a new one and still the same thing.

Welcome to FixYa.

Getting a card error means that:

* memory card is not yet formatted for camera use
* memory card requires cleaning
* using a incompatible memory card
* camera malfunction

All you need to do is:

Memory Card not formatted
You have to format the memory card. Some memory card can't be formatted using a PC's, or formatted by another digital camera. I suggest that you have to format the memory card using the camera itself.

Memory Card requires cleaning
Use a dry and soft cloth in cleaning the memory card and the memory acrd slot.
Using a clean pencil eraser can also be useful in cleaning the memory card but you have to be careful, slightly rub the eraser on the memory card.

Incompatible memory card
Please use a compatible memory card

Camera malfunction
In this case you have to contact you service center. It will be a big help if you can check if your camera is still under warranty to get a free service.

Please let me know if you have any questions and if this solution was helpful.
