your menu button may be blocked and cant be pressed.... or may be it is all ready pressed ... check the button... if it is already pressed than you wont be able to press again...
That's amazing to me since most camera makers will send you a part free if it is cosmetic. consider ebay buying a broken one... If you opt for a new camera, consider Canon. Best brand IMO cost/quality.
You can't. The Z612 uses SD cards. Your 4GB card is actually an SDHC (Secure Digital High Capacity) card and is incompatible with SD devices.
For SD cards (2GB and smaller), you'll find the Format operation in the Setup menu. Press the Menu button, then use up/down to select the wrench, then press OK.
Go to Kodak.com and download the latest Easyshare software and install it on your computer. After, that, install drivers for the camera, and you should be able to share the pictures between the camera and computer.
Wouldn't that be nice!...a "stop" switch that we could just engage everytime we dropped our cameras. That would be expensive to include on a camera so the factory installed a cheaper but very good alternative....the camera strap! Sorry, but it sounds like you need service.
To format a card, press the MENU button, use cursor-up/down to select the wrench icon and press the OK button, use cursor-up/down to select "Format" and press OK.Be aware that the Z612 only works with cards up to 2GB in size. If you have a larger card, you won't be able to format it in the camera.
Buy yourself an SD memory card and transfer your pics to the card. That will clear your internal memory. You can save all your pics that you take from now on in the SD card.
Digital cameras work off different voltages. For instant the lens zoom motor usually runs on 6 volts of power. The power switch can run as little as 2 volts/ Capacitors are used for each circuit to provide the correct voltage as neede to operate. The circuit for the power on switch has a faulty capacitor in yours. It will be less expensive to purchase a new camera than having this one repaired
It's on the bottom of the camera and is made up of both letters and numbers. There should be three to five letters at the beginning of the serial number.
First check make sure the SDHC card is unlocked I'll provide a diagram for that also I just checked your camera's memory capacity and it's only good for a 1 gig SD card which if using an SDHC memory card might go to 1.5 stretch to 2gig maybe but not a 4gig. My first impression is you got to much memory card for the camera. You might be able to go to the Kodak site and download updated firmware to allow the camera to function with the larger card but that's a maybe as well. Here are the diagrams
Your camera was designed before 4GB SDHC format cards came out. Sorry but your camera can only use 2GB or less standard SD cards. These are relatively inexpensive these days, and can be found on Amazon if your local store no longer carries them.
What happens when you press the Review button? Hmmm???? I mean, can you elaborate a little? I promise I will not sell the information to a Foreign Power.
Have you tried taking the card out and view the images in your computer through a memory card reader?
You can Format by entering the camera's menu and find the format section. Click Here and see Pages 36-39 for detailed instructions on formatting your SD Card. Also your camera is not capable of reading the High Capacity SD cards (SDHC) so you will have to stick to the SD cards (2gb or smaller)
Some
symptoms of a defective CCD
(Charge Coupled Device) include distorted images or abnormal colors, scratchy purple lines,
blank or black pictures, and/or black videos with good sound being
recorded on the camera's flash card. When a picture is taken, the CCD is struck by light
coming through the camera's lens. Each of the thousands or millions of
tiny pixels that make up the CCD convert this light into electrons. The
number of electrons, usually described as the pixel's accumulated
charge, is measured, then converted to a digital value. This last step
occurs outside the CCD, in a camera component called an
analog-to-digital converter.
In order to correct this issue, the repair facility needs to replace the CCD. This is not something you may do on your own; check this article for additional details: Bad CCDs. This, isn't a good new, but hope helps to solve it.
The Malfunction: Among
the CCDs used in the affected products listed above, it has been
confirmed that, especially under high-temperature/high-humidity
environments, the internal wiring may come undone in some places.
If
this defect occurs, the signal is not output from the CCD correctly
when in shooting mode, which results in symptoms like the following in
captured images. These symptoms can be confirmed on the LCD monitor. The
same symptoms may also occur in recorded images. * images do not appear * images appear distorted
The Z612 uses MMC and SD cards. Your 4GB card is actually an SDHC card. While it fits into the slot, it is electronically incompatible. You need to use cards 2GB and smaller.
hi,
you have shutter unit defective. indoor works fine but outside too much over exposure..due to shutter unit has oil contaminated on blade or sand damaged.
your local repair shop could charge you around $45 to 65 if they are willing to repair.
Good Luck with you!
