Memory Card Problems
If your camera won't start up properly and/or displays "card
locked", first check to be sure your card is not "Locked". On
most SD cards there is a switch on the side of the card. If
the card is locked, you will not be able to save any photos. If
the card is not locked, but this message persists, you can
attempt to clean the contacts in the card holder by blowing canned air into the
card slot. This will often resolve the issue.
If you have other issues, you may have to try a different brand of memory card.
We have found that some of the less expensive memory cards are very slow and
do not always run well (even if they are advertised as fast). RECONYX® certified
memory cards are available at www.reconyx.com .
Cold Weather Problems
If your camera shuts down in the cold, it may be too cold for the batteries to
operate reliably. Refer to the "Battery Specifications" section for recommended
battery types. Extreme cold weather may have an adverse affect on the LCD
display; this does not inhibit the camera's ability to function.
Battery Life Less than Expected
NiMH batteries have decreased life in hot weather. They will run the camera, but
they will have decreased run time. It is not unusual to see battery life drop off
50% or more when daytime temperatures near 90˚ Fahrenheit or higher. This will
not damage your NiMH batteries; but they will discharge at a faster rate.
