I have not seen that error code before. I am currently using a standard 1GB SD card (not a SDHC). This camera does support SDHC class 4. Have you tried using a different SD or SDHC card?

Could be several things, camera not working or hooked up, how about common ground, use the 2sd video to test for bad input fault. Sorry can't think of anything else.

I purchased a D5000 in July and have been very satisfied with it. Great camera. I recently received an email from Nikon about this problem. My s# is 304**** and they say it has the problem. I haven't sent it in yet. I'm having a problem with fixing something that works fine.

I've only had mine for about a month but no problem so far. I would definitely contact Olympus support. I had a question about the camera when I first received it and they could not have been any nicer. If that doesn't resolve the issue, I would then contact Amazon for an exchange.

the only thing I can think of is that one of the camera's don't work. Maybe you can return the unit for another one. good Luck.

I thought I had the same problem but it seems that this particular type of camera is just a piece of junk. Sorry you got stuck with this!!

I have been unable to set the unit to automatically overwrite old data when the card is full. The camera will either let me record in a (3/5/10) minute loop, or record continuously until the card is full at which point it stops recording.

I had to re-set and reinstall the camera. Delete the camera from the list. The camera can be reset by holding the reset button on the bottom for 15 seconds. Then just go through the install process again.

I have had no problems with my Sandisk Class 6 SDHC card, but I bought a Toshiba 16GB Class 4 SDHC card and I get a buffer overflow message after about 20 seconds of recording at which point recording stops. Another problem is a message I get when first turning on the HF200. Something like "Data is corrupted, would you like to fix it? Yes/No". Canon's documentation says both Class 4 and Class 6 cards are supported for HD recording. Perhaps recording at the maxiumum 24Mbps 1080i data rate only works with Class 6 cards. Also note that these problems occurred after trying both full and quick card initializations on the camcorder.

Very informative, Matthijs. I was wondering why the card from my new camera was not getting recognized. Old was SD New was SDHC. My version is 20-90-00136. Guess I will go to Sandisk to see if I can update the firmware. EDIT: Well, I just checked. Looks like I am SOL! I guess a new card reader is in the cards.

I am also having the same problem, but sometimes mine will turn on and say "LD error. Please insert sd card and restart system." I have tried it with and without an SD card and still nothing. I even tried it with an AC adapter but all I get is a blank screen. I'm guessing it's defective and will have to be returned, but if anyone has figured out how to get it to work in the meantime, I would love to hear it!

I have been using a Sandisk 4GB SDHC (class 2 speed), and a Sandisk 8GB SDHC Extreme III (class 6 speed) with this camera and both seem to work fine. I've noticed that some retailers claim in their "specifications" sections that this camera can only use cards up to 2GB (not SDHC), but I haven't found this to be the case. I'm not sure if I'll actually be able to get the full 4-8GB storage capacity out of my cards, but compatibility hasn't been a problem. Hope this info helps.

I've never had that problem, Joyce, but have had a lens error where the camera wouldn't open OR close. Hope you get it resolved. The digital card that is in the little slot--if you push DOWN on it, the card should pop up. Maybe try that? Good luck!

I have never had a problem with the unit and I use it continuesly with ten camera. You do have to be careful as u insert the batteries. U could have a defective unit

My sister and I both had this camera and we had the same problem. I think that once you start having issues with this camera there is no going back. I would just upgrade. We never figured out why the glitch occurred.
