I just bought a new CF card (256mb SanDisk) and put it in to test it out. Works great. Tried to take it out...pushed release button, it comes up, but I cant pull it out-like its stuck. :cry: what do I do to get it out? my original CF card that came with it went it and came out with ease. Oh gees... what should I do?
Thanks

Hi, I thought I had the same problem when I put a PNY card in the camera. I had to hit the eject button twice and it came out. Try it....good luck...it really is a good camera.

Wrangler,
I had a US made Lexar 12x/256MB card do the same thing in my A60. I had to use a curved steel pick to pull it out! There was NO WAY a finger nail was going to remove it. Initially tried a toothpick, but it snapped like nothing. This card did the same thing in a Kodak camera I own.
The Lexar card was replaced with a Singapore made version (explicitly said no US made card) and all is well/back to normal. In five years of dig photography, and many cards used, this is the first to actually jam in the camera. Hard to believe these types of issues even exist!
