Move photos to new SD card


Karen

Recommended Posts

I have an older camera S9450W and I have a couple of questions which my son said he would help me with.   I have an 8GB SD card that is falling apart and would like to transfer all my pics to a newer 16GB card that I have been presently using.  The end results would be that I would like to purchase a 32 GB SDXC memory card, add all the 8MG pics from the card that is falling apart and add all the pics that are on my 16MG card to create one SD card with all my pics on them.... Is this possible and how can I do it??  I am going to require help from someone as I am not very savvy in with electronics.  I really appreciate any help that someone can give me.  Thank you, Karen

Make sure you format the new card in the camera before copying the previous images over to the new card.

While some folks have had no problems using their new cards right out of the box, so to speak, or using their computer to format the new cards, the fewest numbers of troubles, issues, woes and problems happen for those that format the cards in the camera.

Also, once the card is formatted, take it out of the camera, put it into the card reader connected to your computer and use the computer’s finder (file explorer) to take a look at how the folders / files are organized within the sdxc card. You will need to move the previous images into one of the inner level folders, so that the camera will be able to know they exist and will not accidentally wipe them out if they are in the wrong place.

If that does not make sense, or if you need any more help, ask lots more questions, and sooner or later as folks log on to the board, someone may be able to help.

    • Some elements in (autofocus) lenses are „floating“, so I guess what you are experiencing is normal.
    • How do I turn off the electronic shutter in the menu - the option is grayed out and I cannot select the mechanical option
    • I'm having trouble finding a way to attach a right-angle viewfinder to the Fuji X-H1 camera. Does anyone have experience with how the angle viewfinder behaves in combination with the EVF? Is the Minolta frame diameter of the right angle viewfinder suitable for attaching to the Fuji XH1 (or XT1, 2, 3, 5)? Does anyone have knowledge about which eyepiece is compatible with the Fuji X system? Thank you in advance for any assistance and information you can provide.    
    • I purchased a gently used XF 80mm f/2.8 aspherical macro for my X-T5. Not being familiar with this lens but having had experience with the Leica T mount 60mm macro and Canon and Zeiss macros, I was surprised that I felt what might be best described as a loose lens element that shifted when I tilted the lens, even before being mounted to the camera. In manual focus mode, the lens is fine, but there is a distinct “wobble” when the lens is in autofocus mode. I reported this to the company (I bought it from KEH), and they agreed this was odd and accepted it back for a full refund. I just got a replacement lens and the same thing is happening. I’ve never had an experience in which I feel a lens element loose inside the housing. Is this normal? Should I return it (again)?
    • Old post but hope this can help. You have to make sure that exp. comp. is set to zero in P, S or A mode before you go in to manual mode. If the comp is set to, let say +5, and this is of the range for the settings in manual mode, twisting the comp dial (left dial) want do any changes.
