Ken and everyone

Firstly many thanks for all your comments and suggestions this afternoon - you've made a newbie feel very welcome.

Most of the cards are quite old and do not have a class on them.

My most recent card is a 4Gb class 6 card.

I put that in and it reported "Memory Card Error" (I've had that with most cards when I put them in).

Took it out, put it in again and it was ok
Reformatted it
Recorded a video

No problems - played back fine on the camera.

That leaves me with a couple of concerns though.
Why do I frequently get "Memory card error" when I put one in?
Why do I need a class 6 card to record video - the spec for the camera doean't list any minimum requirements for cards?

Any thoughts?

Yes all the cards have been formatted in the new camera (the 2Gb one took a while!)

Haven't tried just voice memo - I'll try that later

I've tried various SD cards (256Mb, 512Mb and 2Gb) all of which worked perfectly ok with my previous Pentax camera - not sure of the make and model though - I'll check when I get home tonight

Hi Gwyn

Don't think its me hitting the shutter release as it happens at regular intervals and on every video shot - but I'll have another go later and keep my shutter finger under control !

As far as I am aware yes.

I thought to begin with it was the fact that when playing back on the camera there is a 'shuffle' time set in the 'Slideshow' option. Hence I put the memory card in my PC and used Windows Media player to play the file directly.

Excatly the same result - every few seconds it jumps a few seconds in the recording.

I've just bought the RZ10 and am working through the features.

I've a problem recording video.

The video and sound appear to record ok but when I play them back, either through the camera or on my PC parts of the recording are missing.

eg

I recite the alphabet a to z but when I paly it back I get
a b c d g h i l m n p
etc

about every couple of seconds I loose a second

Can't find anything in the manual about this but suspect it's user error

Anyone else had this problem - or like to point out my incompetance
