DSC-H300 Cyber-shot only saving 5 images

[ShaunJ]

Hello, I have been using this camera for a number of years with no issues, but after my SD card became physically damaged I started using a replacement SD card (Sandisk). I formatted the new SD card but find I can only take 5 images that are stored correctly, any other images are not. When I transfer imaged to my laptop images 6 onwards show as 'file empty'?

I believed it was a faulty new SD card, and the supplier sent me a replacement, but it has the same issue.

I have re-initilized the camera, but the fualt remains. I'm guessing there must be an internal fault but was wondering if anyone has experienced similar?

Thanks

Shaun

Hi Shaun,

I believe that the speed of the memory card is an important factor, if you have another memory card with the same speed, could you try it and let us know the outcome?

Hi there
I thought it was just a faulty SD card, so got the ebay seller to send me a
replacement. Had exactly the same issue with that.
Hope that helps

Hi Shaun,

Since both memory cards from the same class and the same speed didn't work, I assume that it is a compatibility issue with the card.
