Hello, I have a K10D and it has decided to not read my sd card. The message of no card in camera will pop up when I turn the camera on. I have tried re-inserting it several times but no good. The card will read ok in the pc and tv set so that seams ok. Does anyone have any thoughts on what I should try?

thanks

Probably a crappy Sandisk

Pentax K-1 + K-5 and some other stuff

When this happened to me, and it's only happened once, I formatted the card in another camera and then formatted back in the troublesome one. It worked.

Of course, cards are cheap, so if there's any doubt just buy a new one.

Agreed with the above re another card - but try it with another KNOWN [ ie recently used with some shots on it ] good card
let the education continue
