Kodak EasyShare C875 Digital Camera - Page 6 - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

No. The camera does not have a charger on it. You will have to get a separate charger.

The max SD card size for the Kodak C875 is 2GB. HCSD cards will not work.

Hi,

I am sorry to say that the C875 is not compatible with SDHC cards. Only SD or MMC cards.
You can get SD cards up to 2GB.

This is not unusual in cameras of a few years old.

Hope this helps.

How long have you had your dock and batt.?
They might be in a need of a change.

Here are the steps:
1. Clean the battery contacts.
a. Remove the battery/batteries and the memory card from your camera, then wipe the battery contacts with a soft, clean cloth.
b. Reinstall the battery/batteries into your camera
2. Turn on your camera without the memory card.

Your best bet is to increase the ISO setting to at least 800. Don't use flash unless you're within 10 feet. My idea if a new camera would be a DSLR. Expensive, has a learning curve, but the results would be spectacular.

According to the owner's manual, only 1GB or smaller cards can be used with this camera.

Select all photos from camera memory & press send to memory Card.

Hi,

You can format the card using your PC.

Please see my FixYa Tip on this subject here
http://www.fixya.com/support/r3770174-format_memory_card_using_computer

This camera is limited to a 1GB card according to the manual. However it should be able to handle cards up to 2GB. From your description, it certainly sounds that 4 and 8GB exceed its capabilities as it is an older model.

Hope this helps. Thanks for using FixYa.

Please also try to upload new firmware: I doubt that it will solve the issue, but the alternative is a repair.
Connect the camera with the computer.
Turn the camera on.

If the camera has recently been dropped you may have lens damage that is preventing it from powering up. If it hasn't been dropped your problem may be due to corrosion on the battery contacts inside the camera which can prevent the full power of the batteries from flowing into the camera. Try this free fix before you do anything else: remove the batteries and wipe the camera contacts firmly with a dry cloth (heavy corrosion may require cleaning with a wire brush, steel wool, or sandpaper). Remove any residue that may have fallen into the battery compartment during cleaning, then wipe both ends of the batteries and place them back in the camera and give them a full charge (assuming that you are using rechargeable batteries). This cleaning clears the problem about 90% of the time. If it doesn't work for you, the camera may have a problem that requires professional repair.

Please upload new firmware:
Connect the camera with the computer.
Turn the camera on.
