My memory card is only showing two images when I haven't deleted any images since I've bought it..

If you haven't done anything to the memory stick since then, you may be able to recover at least some of the pictures. Do a Google search for "data recovery software" and select a program appropriate for your computer and operating system. Put the memory stick into a card reader attached to your computer and run the program.

Restore photo easily by Kernel Recovery for Digital Media software. It is able to recover deleted image from SD card and other digital media storage device. You can use this tool and recover all deleted or lost images from camera. Visit software utility http://www.camerarecovery.org/

I do not have an L26, but on Nikon SLR's there is a menu item that allows you to reset the counter. The L26 may have the same feature since it is rather basic. Have you looked in the manual that came with your camera?

Use the USB cable to back the images to your computer and then delete the ones you've backed up. You can also copy "all" of your images from the camera and theb format the memory card while in the camera to clear it completely (be SURE TO BACKUP ALL IMAGES first).

hi
After you've safely uploaded your digital images to your computer or other device, what do you do with the memory card? Here are a few tips:

• Don't use the computer's software to erase your memory card; always use the camera. That way your card will remain as compatible as possible with your digicam.
• When you're on the go and haven't had time to back up all of your pictures, use the "erase all" function on your digital camera. This allows you to recover deleted pictures with recovery software in an emergency.
• You only need to use the "format" function on your camera every few months. This reformats the card completely providing you with a "clean slate," but also prevents data recovery in an emergency.

One of my favorite data recovery programs is PhotoRescue. It's available both for Windows and Mac OS X. You can download a trial version, and if you like it, purchase for $29.

thank you..........

Erasing a memory card: when erasing a memory card, individual photos are deleted from their directories on the card. You can erase one or more user selected images at a time, or erase all images at one time. However, any images that you've selected to be "protected" through another menu option will not be removed during the erasure process.

Formatting a memory card: format a memory card sample menuFormatting, on the other hand, deletes all images from a memory card, even the ones that may have been protected. It recreates the file system including new directories and folders where images are saved on the card.

Unlike erasing, formatting improves the overall performance of a card.

Low level formatting: some digital cameras offer a low level format in addition to the standard format option. With a low level format, all data on the card is deleted. New directories and folders are also recreated during this process.

A low-level format of a high speed memory card helps ensure smooth continuous shooting at a constant interval. For optimal video performance, it's also recommended that a low level format be done sometime prior to recording.

In camera, not computer: though opinions vary, many recommend formatting a memory card in a digital camera, not via a computer. If you plan to use a memory card that was previously used in another camera, format the card in the new camera before taking any shots.

Hope this helps and just keep in mind that your feedback is important and I'll appreciate your time and consideration if you leave some testimonial comment about this answer.

This is a common error in the FinePix product range. When you receive a "Card Error" or "Card Not Initialized" message, this indicates that your camera's memory may be temporarily corrupted. This can be due to not formatting your memory card on a consistent basis. Most users will use the "delete all" feature and continue to take pictures but by doing this the file format of the card may become unstable and unusable.

Fuji recommends formatting your memory card in your camera after saving the images from your previous shooting session. Once a memory card is formatted the images will not be recoverable. So format the current cards and they should be useable again.
