CF Card error

chseah · 16th January 2005

Hi dropped my 256 Ridata CF card. My camera will prompt CF Card error after taking 30 shots or copying 60MB. Can I know if I am able to send it back for repair ?

try formating it first (with your cam) .. dont think CF can spoilt that easily by just dropping it.

true true. but if it's still under warranty, you may exchange for a new one.
