Sorry, what you ask is impossible. SDHC compliant devices contain different hardware and no amount of firmware can overcome that limitation.

The sanyo does not need any drivers, plug it in your computer with usb, turn camera on, select "PC" and press the SET button. now your camera will show up in my computer or computer as a removeable storage device and inside you will find the pictures.

If you already tried a new battery, I would suggest cleaning the battery terminals with alcohols and a q-tip first and check for loose terminals. It may be a power switch which unfortunately can't be changed or fixed by the average user. If you want to trouble shoot further and feel you can do it yourself, I will send you links on repair. Otherwise it should be brought in to a reputable repair shop.

No worries, it is possible to recover deleted photos from camera. You may take a look at this guideHow to recover deleted photos from digital camerathe guide helped me before, easy to follow and helped me get back all my photos from my digital camera, hope that it helped you too!

From your description, it appears that the camera may have received an accidental blow, or else there is some foreign matter (sand or suchlike) in the lens mechanism. Either way, you are probably looking at professional repairs, which will be expensive, possibly prohibitively so. It may be more financially viable to replace your equipment. If you can show accidental damage has occurred, then you may be able to claim on your household insurance.

I had this same failure. It could be two things, one you bumped the lens an knocked it off the track it rides on. Easier done than you think, or the motor has failed on the lens. You can try to take it apart as I did, but you need time an small tools to do it. It took me three hours to take apart, an two hours to get back together. Dont throw it away I you can fix it. Someone could fix most likely if that is it

There is only one thing I can think of. If it is not this perhaps your camera is defect. Your camera has a White balance setting. You can put it in Auto, Incand. Daylight, cloudy and Manual. Check if it is in something other than Auto. If so, put it in Auto, till you think you can improve the colours by putting it in a special setting.
