Memory card needs formatted is displayed on the screen. Deleted the pictures and it still comes up. Tried to take more pictures and the memory card would not hold. Is there something wrong with the camera or the memory card?

All your pictures are saved on the memory card of your Samsung digital camera automatically.So you can recover pictures from memory card with data recovery software.I have a professional program on my computer that can recover deleted,formatted and corrupted data after deeply scanning your memory card to look for lost data. But you had better have stopped using the memory card of your camera. Because, once the pictures were overwritten by new ones,they are gone for good.
By the way,you may need a card reader to connect the card with computer.Download this program and scan your memory card for free to preview whether your erased photos can be recovered.Get it from http://www.any-data-recovery.com/product/datarecoverystandard.htm

insert card, format card.
goto setting-> select save picture to...-> choose card.

you should see a card symbol on the screen when you take picture.

You still need to get rid of the pics on the internal memory. With no card in the camera, go into the menu and find "format" and follow the on screen instructions to erase the internal memory. Then, insert your card and it should work properly.

Deleting pictures one by one is time consuming and hard on the memory card. Right now you have deleted the images but the memory card needs to be formatted. Always format the memory card never delete what camera make and model are you using and do you have the manual?

That symptom appears when memory card in camera got defective/ imbalanced.
Format memory card in camera by camera Menu, Format option and problem will be fixed.
Note, all data/ pictures in memory card will be deleted by formatting so take back-up of importatnt pictures.
Thanks.

Go to the menu of your device and format the card if you can, there may be a problem with your the card, that happens to me some time ago with a SDcard and the problem was in the card.

Hope it helps

when i want to take a picture with my memory card in it, it says format error, and when i take my memory card out it seems to take a picture. what can i do to keep the memory card in and take a picture

yes, it it possible to recover lost photos from digital camera, either after they are been deleted or memory card is formatted. Please follow the steps in this digital camera recovery guide that helped me last time.

Once the memory card is formatted, the files saved or pictures will be deleted and there is no way to retrieve the images.

I would advise that you transfer the pictures first to your PC before formatting the memory card.
