Memory card prob.

I had a problem with an unbranded card a while back. I use adobe photodownloader to transfer the files off and it stopped after the 20th picture and wouldn't transfer the rest. I then tried manually copying them off in blocks of 10, which worked. Then one of the blocks of ten wouldn't transfer,...

Problem viewing photos on digital photo frame

my bet is the way the camera writes to the memory card, creates a folder for the viewing thumbnails and a seperate folder for the hi res images, and your photoframe is reading the low res folder only. it may even be the file structure or file names that's doing it. take the images from the camera...

Lens stuck on camera body

nope, just press the button down, and slide your finger off the button, allowing it to "snap" back.

Lens stuck on camera body

nope, just press the button down, and slide your finger off the button, allowing it to "snap" back. Of course, the way i explained it would mean damaging the camera :oops: How dumb :roll: On the subject of dumb things you are all invited to my place for a BBQ and a swim Don ...

Lens stuck on camera body

Back to that Albinar lens that was stuck, you can generally get them off by carefully sliding the .005mm blade of a filler gauge between the lens and body near the AF drive while wiggling gently and holding the lens release button at the same time (it also helps to have a friend to help). I release...

K10D

Hi Gordon IIRC the early Sigma EF-500 DG Super's had to go back to Sigma to be re-chipped. The K10D does not support TTL it only supports P-TTL, A or Manual, the *isD supports TTL. Was it bought new or SH?

I can't install windows! Need a challenge? I've got 1 for ya

I've seen similar problems being caused by defective RAM. I have put faster memory in it, had no problems, but I will put the old memory back in and try again next week!

I can't install windows! Need a challenge? I've got 1 for ya

I'm not a Windows user but won't use this as an opportunity to evangelize (though I'm sorely tempted :wink: ) but have come across problems like this before installing an OS onto a SATA hard drive. Basically, you know the SATA drives work because they're both OK when placed in a USB caddy. The MB m...

I can't install windows! Need a challenge? I've got 1 for ya

Well.... time for an update. With all the help and advice you guys have given me, I still could not get anywhere with the SATA drives, so I thought I would be clever! One of the SATA drives is now happily sitting in my PS3 giving me a nice boost on storage space, one is going to be used in an ext...

I can't install windows! Need a challenge? I've got 1 for ya

PS @ Hefty, I did PM you about this, hoping that you might take this on for me, but not sure if you got it? Seen that other users seem to be having problems with the PM system, so not sure if you didn't get it, or just took the wise decision to not get involved! :wink: Would appreciate very much if ...

Now you want to install XP on your second hard drive. (correct?) You have new Sata drives. Have you partitioned the drives yet? If you have How much of...

Slide boxes

Linked to my other thread about the future of film where I commented on the increased difficulty in obtaining slide storage boxes for a large number of slide films... Fujichrome users sending their films back to FujiLab for processing will know that the mounted slides are no longer returned in th...

Camera 35mm

Hi all, HELP I have just purchased a used Pentax P30 on ebay. Unfortunately the film advance lever only moves half as far as it should. Consequently i can't load a film and naturally can't really use the camera. The batteries incidentally are flat (not certain if this has any influence on this p...

Engineers menu on K100d Super

This is not really where most users should be. Without the proper test equipment it ends up a guess. If the focus on a camera is so way out that it isn't covered by the DOF available then it's IMHO a job for the experts.

Engineers menu on K100d Super

I had a stuck needle in the pump and they said I'd need to take it off and send it away at some cost. However by careful exploration and talking to the right man I discovered it was simply rusted up and that using WD40 and moving it back and forth would free it up. That all went very well but whe...

Vista wont detect camera... detects everything else. Help?

I assume your reader works with SDHC on other machines?? (Those cards do require newer readers to handle the new protocol.) One thing that worked for a couple of devices on Vista is to power off the machine, plug in the device and boot the machine back up. Vista might recognize the device on bo...
