Digital Camera question. "Memory Full?"

Does it have a memory card in it? The camera has its own internal memory but its only good for a few pics. You need to get the right kind of memory card for it. They will hold hundreds of pics and are cheap.

SOUNDS LIKE YOUR USING THE SD MEMORY CARD THAT COMES WITH THE CAMERA
WHICH HAS ALMOST NO CAPACITY...ITS JUST SO YOU CAN TAKE SOME PICTURES
YOU NEED TO GO TO THE STORE AND BUY AT LEAST A ONE OR TWO GIG CARD
THEN YOUL GET HUNDREDS OF PICS
MY BRAND NEW CANON GAVE ME TWELVE PICS

I have to say, i dont know. I put the battery in, charged it up, and figured it was good to go.

It sounds like you didn't get a memory card to put in it. The camera itself only has enough for a picture or three. The most likey place a memory card would be is right next to the batteries, under the battery door. Chec to see if there is an empty slot there.

Thanks, I think that is the problem. Although I dont even know where to put the memory card.

Thanks to all for the help.

Yes, there is a slot there, thanks.

Delete the pics in the internal memory, you already downloaded them anyway, and shoot three more. Download, delete and repeat until you can get a memory card.

Will do, thanks.

One other thing you may want to look at, bgesides the card, is what setting you have your pic size on. If you have it on maximum pixels, you will get very few pics on the card. try the menu on the camera, to adjust the pic size.

One other thing, most 2 gig cards are on sale now for under $10. I have a 1 gig card for my 9 megapixel camera, and i can get about 200 pics on a caed at max pic size. you also might want to invest in some good rechargeble batteries, as the camera will suck up reg batteries. I have energizer rechargebles, and they will last way beyond filling up a one gig card, before I have to recharge them.

You have to flush out the memory.

Turn it on and run it under tap water for a few minutes.

Manuals are for sissies.
...unless you are an idiot like this person...who is too lazy to read or has no experience with modern life. I don't know how they operate a computer or a car or just about anything without some instruction. Even a film camera takes Some technique.

Take your camera with you when you go to the store for the SD card, so you make sure you get the right size card to fit in the slot. (You can pick up the SD cards anywhere, chain drug stores, etc.) Best get yourself some lithium batteries, too. Cameras eat up battery power sometimes. ; )

Just make sure when you get the extra memory, you get the right kind. Some older cameras (currently the cheaper models, around $100) only allow you a 1 gig card, so if you buy 2gig, it might not work, or you'll have extra space you can't use.

you got ripped off. every product available on the market is overpriced and the company's only desire is to continuously rip you off.
this is what happens when evil people gain control of corporations. they then pass their way of doing things on to the next.

I have read the manual, and I have never stole anything.

I was just looking for some help, as it is all new to me.

I am not a demon.

I am not an idiot. I read the manual, but lets face it, these manuals are not written by native English speakers.

I have been driving since I was 15.

Jeez, I just asked for some help.

Thank you for the info.

New cameras usually come with a small memory card. Plus your resolution setting may be set to maximum for each picture for highest resolution but uses more space.

Thanks, I am learning as I go.

ROFL OMGosh- I got a good laugh out of this one ! Are ya sure...... I mean really, really, REALLY sure you aren't a demon ???


It will be ok- just do what everyone says get the memory card, take the camera with you. Cards right now are about $8 or less with all the sales. I got mine for free -after rebate- at radio shack a month or so ago.
