Recommended Posts

Hello,

Anyone else had problems saving pictures to the MicroSd card? It looks ok and it go's throught the notions when you press the buttons but when you look at the card after taking a pic theres nothing there! I have other files stored on the card and they work fine, i can also save photos to the m3100's memory without issue, just not direct to to the MicroSD.

Any ideas? Cheers.

Is it that the pictures are not there at all. Or they are there but are blank. In other words are the files created (probably quite small) but when you viewed them it is blank.

If that is the case then it seems to be a known problem if you are trying to use the maximum picture size with the least compression (super fine)

I had it - fixed it by changing to fine compression.

Just a thought!

No sadly theres not even a blank pic the folder is empty and i cant find them any where else on the phone. Just tried different picture size / quality settings but it didnt make any difference, but thank you.

Never had any problems here. Not sure what's going on with yours. Might want to try Coolcamera. When you insert the MicroSD card and then start the camera app does it give you the message asking whether you want to store photo's on the external storage card?

Yeah it does, everytime i launch the camera this message comes up but it doesnt make any difference if you click yes and take a pic it still doesnt appear. I will install coolcamera later and see how that go's. Thanks for the replys.

My 3100 appears to have started doing this too. I tried taking a photo directly to the phone and it works, but take one to the memory card, and the folder it should go into, is blank, and I've searched for JPEG but not found camera ones.

I suspect the card is faulty, or just needs reformatting, but all my programs work fine.

Anyone any ideas?

thanks

I would certainly try formatting the card (ideally in the device if you have pocket plus or similar app with formatting option).
