Samsung Digimax S730 Digital Camera - Page 5 Questions & Answers
Battery life
I bought a pack of Kodak rechargeable batteries at Walmart for $15.00 9 months ago and they are still going stron - they go for about 4-5 hours without needing to be recharge, not to mention 4 come in the pack and the camera only takes 2 so I always have 2 extra ones ready. I love this camera and use it non-stop on a regular basis (I took over 200 pictures yesterday at my daughter's soccer game) - get the rechareables and I think you will be happy.
Card locked comes up when I try to take a picture
If you take the card out, you'll see a tiny little switch on the side of the card. This is the write-protect and you can use it to protect important photos from being overwritten. As it's currently locked, move the switch to the other position and you should be good to go.
Some of these switches are loose and move on their own. Also it's easy to move it when taking the card in and out of the camera.
My Samsung Camera won't turn on and the lens is
Due to the tight tolerances inside the lense mechanism - small bits of sand or lint may become trapped in the mechanics.
It is advised to take the camera to a camera repair shop and have it disassembled and cleaned.
There are many small parts and intricacies that will render it totally useless if not done properly.

Wont take pictures
It's saying you have too much light for the setting. This usually happens when you have the still shot setting on night (low light) pictures.
Adjusting to "auto" should fix this.

SD cards have a slide switch along one edge. The position farthest from the contacts locks the card, protecting it from writes. The position nearest the contacts unlocks the card. If the switch is already in the proper position, slide it fully the other way and then back again.
If that doesn't work, try another card.

The flashing eye has to do with the camera's red-eye reduction feature. Check to see that the little window below the flash on the front of the camera is clean, and make sure the lens is spotless. If that doesn't work, try de-activating the red-eye reduction using the camera menu.
Card error
Due to the broadness of this issue, I can only give you information based on what I know.
Cameras made within the last few years usually always have card problems. They supply you with a 16Mb card just enough to get a few pictures on. When the user buys a different card, the usual error is either card read error, card error, or simply just not reading the card.
First, if you can buy the brand of card supplied with the camera it's highly suggested you do so. As much sense as it doesn't make, certain cards only work with certain cameras. To avoid costly purchases consult the sales rep at the store. If they seem like they think they know but have an uncertain tone don't trust them because they're just trying to get you to spend money. Take your camera in and ask them to literally check to see if their recommended card works.
If you continue to get this error you may have a defective unit in which case you should consult the camera company regarding your waranty.
Overall it's a great camera and you shouldn't have any other issues with it. From personal experience Samsung makes great products and they're built pretty sturdy and with excellent detail in enhancing their product's performance.
Good luck and please rate my solution accordingly.

The Lens is stuck in the out position and wont
The lens has probably got something in the retraction mechanism that is stopping it retracting. This can be something as simple as sand or grit or as a result of a drop or knock. In most cases the camera will need to be stripped apart to remove the lens assy before it can be repaired. This is best left to a professional camera repair shop.
