Your techy talents amaze me Fi .....well done with da phone. Just shows these men actually dunna keen everything! My camera is a D80. Apparently a lot of folk have been having the same trouble with the 4gb card. The card was formatted when I got the camera, so I didna have to do anything. I canna mind what brand it is.......it's still at da camera shop at present. They were able to recover a lot of the photos but not all......although as I said previously, I was just playing so it didna matter, but if I'd had precious piccies on the camera I might have been a tad put out! ;D I note from some of da forums that the camera supports SDHC??? cards, so I'll check if any further cards I purchase conform to this spec.

Your techy talents amaze me Fi .....well done with da phone. Just shows these men actually dunna keen everything! Thanks but I think it was me just being pig-headed and not wanting to throw the phone away! ;D And it was women I spoke to, so perhaps the men would have known! My camera is a D80. Apparently a lot of folk have been having the same trouble with the 4gb card. The card was formatted when I got the camera, so I didna have to do anything. I canna mind what brand it is.......it's still at da camera shop at present. They were able to recover a lot of the photos but not all......although as I said previously, I was just playing so it didna matter, but if I'd had precious piccies on the camera I might have been a tad put out! ;D I note from some of da forums that the camera supports SDHC??? cards, so I'll check if any further cards I purchase conform to this spec. Good luck. Googling briefly, I noticed that some people prefer smaller cards, such as 2 x 2GB so that if anything goes wrong, they haven't lost the lot. The reason I mentioned Sandisk was apparently they have a wee switch on them, to set for 1 lot of 2GB, a 2nd lot of 2 GB or the whole 4GB. So if it was set for 2GB, then it would take the pics until that was full, then probably throw up the error message. This is me who knows absolutely NUTHIN about photography an' stuff!!! <so don't listen to me ;D>

My card did have a peerie switch which enabled the thing to be "locked?", but this didna cause the problem in this instance. I think it's a better idea onywye to have several smaller cards instead of one large one.......you live an learn

This post is for everyone, but george in particular.
George, i was just lookin at all your birdy photos, thinking that you should buy what mr mhay has just purchased for me da day. It's a digital photo frame that you just load your photos into.....either from your pc or memory card. I'm still experimenting with how many photos it can hold, but I've loaded in twenty so far, set to slide show and it just flicks through the photos.
Digital cameras are excellent, but if you're like me, most of the pictures never see the light of day other than the odd glance. With the digital frame, folk can have an ever changing display in da sitting room......and you can change the display as often as you like.

Well I got my 170x500mm.lens yesterday..I waited 5 weeks for it...sooooo I went looking for rapters this morning and got some nice pictures of some Buzzards and a Kestral... I then went to the car-park in the sky, [ top of the Glennifer Braes ] to get some pics of Paisley but the town was very overcast, sooooo didn't bother...I will upload the pics when I get back to Shetland, then let you see them....

I thought I would show you the new-lens that I got..maybe Bod should invest in something like my set-up.. ;D ;D That is a serious camera george. Bodbailey wouldn't know which end was which! Although with her new camera and her trip to Ibiza she may flood the forum with photos of sunnier climes shortly. (not!!!! ;D)
