DMC-FX01 does not support sdhc cards

It seems that DMC-FX01 was designed for the old SD card only, which is with limited storage of 2G. For the higher memory, it is then called SDHC, including the 4G memory and higher.
I have surfing panasonic and some other websites, but cannot see any way to solve this through eg. upgrade...

FX-01 was good camera in it's day but it has been out for 12 years and times have changed. That said, you can still get 1GB and 2 GB SD old-style cards on ebay and other sites. By the way, why hunt for a way to shoot on a 4GB+ card anyway? Low resolution (this one is 6mp) digital cameras with high capacity cards is a recipe for disastrous data loss. As long as your original cards for this camera are not corrupt just keep re-using those.

SOURCE: Using a sdhc card in a Panasonic DMC-FZ10

There is no "new" firmware upgrade for this model. Meaning it is NOT compatible with the SDHC card. Largest you can get is an SD 2GB card.

SOURCE: Lumix DMC-FX01 Buttons not working

Remove the card and battery. Clean the battery contacts inside camera with a cotton swab lightly dampened with rubbing alcohol. Be sure battery is charged. Press all buttons on camera. Insert card and then the battery. See if it works. If you can now get into the setup menu, you can do a reset from the menu.

I have a Panasonic Lumix DMC FX30. Why aren't there SD memory cards in 4gb or higher? Can I substitute any of the other SDHC cards?

There are no SD memory cards 4GB or larger because the Secure Digital standard limits card capacities to 2GB. While SDHC cards will fit into the slot, they are electronically incompatible and will not work in the DMC-FZ30. You will need to stay with SD cards 2GB and smaller.

I bought a SDHC 4GB card and introduced in the camera. When turn on, came the message "memory error". What should I do?

Check your instructions, is a 4GB SDHC card compatible with your camera.

if you don't have a manual, just google "panasonic lumix dmc-fx01 manual" several options will appear.

Page 16 deals with card compatibility, it states that the maximum you can use is a 2GB Sd card, no mention of SDHC.

How to format an SD card on a Canon SD600 camera when the menu says "memory card locked." The memory card is in the unlocked position. When we put the SD card in another Canon camera (SD780 IS), it works...

Could be that you have the wrong memory card.
SD600 will only work with the old SD cards, but the SD780 will take the SDHC cards.
SDHC was intended to give 4gb or more of storage, while the old SD started as 16 mb.  Different cameras have different limits, but it is always best to assume that the practical limit on an SD card is 2mb.  Even if the SD780 will take the SDHC cards, it can be more practical to only carry 2GB SD cards and know that they will fit either camera

Sorry for the extreme delay in answering your question: I've been trawling for old unanswered questions today and yours came up. The following answer will undoubtedly be way too late to be of use to you, but may assist others searching FixYa for an answer to the same problem.

You have been mistaking SD cards for SDHC cards. They look the same but are different, and your camera cannot use SDHC cards as it was designed before they existed. The limitation is due to the hardware in your camera so it cannot be updated to SDHC standards.

Your 2GB card was definitely an SD card as SDHC cards have a minimum capacity of 4GB, and 2GB SD cards are the maximum capacity which your camera can handle. Your only fix is to either stick to 2GB maximum capacity SD cards or to replace the camera with one which is SDHC compatible.
