Samsung PL - Recent Questions, Troubleshooting & Support

mechnism of the lens is deffective,get it serviced.

Hi had this problem with my WB100. Zoom would come out then pop back in and say zoom nit not operate normally, please put new batteries in and try again or contact bla bla. What i did when the zoom popped out is i held onto it and didnt let it retract back and turned it back on. It worked after that so i guess the zoom must of been a little forced in when it was in use last in when turned on it wasnt fully going forward. Worked for me so worth a shot

You don't need any special software.The best way to download pictures from your camera to your computer involves removing the memory card from the camera and plugging it into a card reader (either built-in to the computer or connected via USB or FireWire). This is likely to be faster than connecting the camera to the computer, and won't run down your camera's batteries.Once the card is plugged in, it will appear to your computer as a removable drive. You can use the operating system's drag&drop facility to copy pictures from the card to the computer's hard drive, the same way you copy any other files. Or, despite what I said first, you can use any photo cataloging program such as Picasa ( http://picasa.google.com ). Picasa can also do a more than tolerable job of editing and enhancing your photos.

Simply put, chances of recovery can be high as long as you act as soon as possible and stop using the Samsung digital camera to take more photos or videos, also keep the camera memory card in good shape (no physical damage).Then you can rely on a digital camera data recovery software to get the job done and retrieve your photos. Here shows a list of good ones (for PC/Mac) http://www.digital-camera-recovery.com/You'll need to connect the camera (mass memory card) to your computer. Then install the program to start scan & recover your files. Should be easy to get back your lost memories!Regards

No, once they have been deleted, they are gone forever. Sorry

Try in a different computer.

Update the video codecs for the video editors you use on your computer.

Can you be more specific with your query, please - for instance, does this occur at all settings, both manual and automatic ?

Hi. The PL80 has an 86MB internal memory so it does not sound as if there is anything wrong. However you can buy an SD or SDHC memory card and use that as well, so you can take a lot more pictures.

The number of pictures which can be stored depends on the size of the internal memory, or the extra memory card, and whether you set the camera to record the images in 'Normal', 'fine', or 'super fine' mode. This determines how compressed the images will be, and how much memory each one will use up.

A 1GB card would give around 160 pictures in super fine mode. Have fun with your camera!

It appears the photos are stored on the internal memory in the camers and this us usually a small memory.You most likely need to insert a large SD memory card in your camera say 8 to 16Gb or more depending upon your requirements..

Check the manufacturer's site. It should tell you what you need. That said, if you hook up the camera via USB (usually USB to micro-USB,) just like you would to transfer pictures, many times that will charge the camera as well.

Hi, No electrical cord is used for this model cameras, you will get a clipping type universal battery charger or an original Samsung charger from the market.

switch is bad,STOP SPAMMING!!

download the drivers for your camera,get them from cnet
