Common Error in Fujifilm Camera……….





Most of the Fujifilm camera users have experienced this error and some of them have even stopped using their camera due irritation caused by the error message “CARD NOT INITIALIZED”. The problem has been solved now. Most of the time the problem is caused by external devices which are inserted in the camera;

 If the error message "CARD NOT INITIALIZED" is displayed on the digital camera, the electrical contact of the recording medium may be dirty, or fragmentation of the files may have occurred in the recording medium after data is repeatedly written and erased. In addition, if a memory card is used immediately after purchase, it may not be recognized since the format of the recording medium varies depending on the manufacturer and model. How to troubleshoot
