That type of battery to hold system memory comes in two types, a small hearing aid type battery, or a fixed, soldered battery on the main board. Sometimes they are rechargeable when connected to a mains charger, sometimes not (total loss - they work until they drain). The only battery mention is the main internal battery. You would have to take it to a repair centre. https://www.google.com/search?q=pentax+optio+m40+internal+battery ..

question edited for clarity. Were the batteries brand new and fresh? The most likely cases are that the servo motor needs replacing, or lubricating, or something has dislodged jammed it. The best course of action is to take it to your local camera shop for repair. https://www.google.com/search?q=Pentax+E60+digicam+%E2%80%9Clens+error%E2%80%9D+and+the+lens+is+stuck ..

It needs a new pressure switch. The most likely cause of a pump not shutting off is the pressure switch. It is a small box attached to the water line with electrical wires running to it from your water pump. It's used to turn the pump on when the pressure gets low ( around 40 PSI) and turn it off when it gets high ( around 60 PSI). Dec 31, 2012

Pentax 540fgz not turn on issue after leaving it off for a while. I have just this issue of .... flash unit dose not respond in a any way when loading batteries into it. lcd dose not respond. Flash dose not charge at all. my problem turned out to be corrosion on the terminals and a poor door design and corrosion on ternminals. patch fix. rotate batteries on terminals to clean contacts them use a bandaid and bandaid to tape door shut. long term fix take terminal plate off door clean and bend terminal plate so it contacts batteries better.

Hi, please ensure that you've not used the camera for more than the advised amount of time by the manufacturer. Also, you can attempt to use the same brand/type of batteries as was including with your camera when you got it. Some manufacturers put internal fimware/software restrictions on their devices. For printers, this would be done for cartridges and in the case of your camera, it would be for batteries. Lastly, I would check that your sd card isn't full before calling Pentax to refer you to a repair shop. Thank you.

Hi for anyone reading this! My 60s was just flashing with this but I fixed it. Took the batteries out, swapped them and that didn't work. Tried to put the old ones back in a few minutes later and then it was fine! Just fiddle around with it. Hope this helps.

Could be failure of the charging circuit

Have you tried cleaning the battery contacts in the camera with a cotton swab lightly dampened with rubbing alcohol?

gebje,

error codes on pentax camera's are in the repair manual to help the technician find the problem faster. e9 is shutter failure and will need to be repaired.

This is not a camera

You can't.

In Auto Pict mode the camera selects the best of the pre-set Scene modes for the photograph which you're about to take. It's basically a variation of fully automatic mode, so the camera selects everything for you.

Auto Pict and Auto are designed to let anyone pick up your camera and take a fully automated snapshot without needing to worry about what settings to use.

To alter the shutter speeds you need to select an appropriate mode such as shutter priority or manual.

It depends on what you want the software to do with the camera. If you simply want to download the pictures then any photo cataloging program such as Picasa will do the job.If you want to edit your photos, photo editing programs don't care where the photos came from. You can use any photo editing program, such as PhotoShop or the GIMP.

You need to format a new card in the camera.

The E10 works with SD cards. While SDHC cards will fit into the slot, they are electronically incompatible and will not work. You need to use SD cards 2GB and smaller.

Sounds like a memory card problem. Try using A 512mb San Disk SD Card. Not a San Disk SDHC card. see if that doesn;t help you out. Good-Luck

Sounds like battery life is gone. If there rechargeable batteries they might not be holding a charge anymore.

If your camera has a power cord that plug into your camera to charge the battery does it do the same thing?

If it doesn't have a power cord, what happens when you plug the camera into your computer?
