I insert the brand new memory card in my brand new camera, I get the message that the card is damaged, and it doesn't let me to format. What can I do?

Try it with another card. If the same problem occures than probably the card slot damaged. If it works with another card than the card is damaged. Ask for a replacement of the damaged device ...

You need to test with a second card, to see if it's the camera or the card. SD cards occasionally show up with flaws.

All i did on mine was installed the micro sd, formatted it. And it worked. Either with a pc or on the camera

I am also facing the same issue with my 32G class 6 SDHC card. I want to repair these videos as well as pictures with question mark, anyone knows how?

Your link went back to the memory card. What I can tell you is, I bought it to solve an older printer problem. I have a new camera that is less then one year old and it works just fine.

Mine worked great and then suddenly the camera reads it as damaged. I can no longer use it but I can retrieve the pictures on my computer.

Also if it's a new, fast 32 gig card you might need to check for a firmware update for the zi6 with Kodak online. Also format the card.

I'm no digital geek, but try a different memory card, or maybe a different kind of card reader. I had the same thing happen to me with a Nikon D300, and once I switched the card, it was all right. Worth a try, anyway. BruceS

Why does a memory card NOT come with the camera?? I just purchased one from Amazon to give as a gift, and upon opening and inspecting it, there is NO card. Also, the box was not sealed and had some worn edges... I'm thinking Amazon has pulled a fast one and sent me a returned item that is missing components.

Oh gosh I wish I could help. I don't even have the same computer anymore, so I no longer have the zip file. I do remember spending 2 days to get it straightened out. I would buy a new camera before going through that again. I see some good deals on newer cameras. Good luck!!

Same issue with my Sony cam. Get the error message but I continue and use it, in spite of the error message. Works OK but is quite irritating. Haven't had the failure yet, hope i don't. Seems Sony has a proprietary card format, and as you probably know they are very proud of their cards. (expensive) I would suggest that you bite the bullet and pay the Sony price to ensure you don't have a camera failure.Good luck with your issue!

I paid $30 for a Sandisk 8GB card, and when I tried to take a video, after one minute, it shut down and said that the card doesn;t write fast enough. Is this a defect of the camera or the card. In any case, I feel burned by this and feel like sending the camera back to Amazon.

I have been using my new card for a little over a month and so far no problems. I bought it to replace a SanDisk card that was full. Have another camera I have used for about 10 years and always use Sandisk cards with no problems.
