I have a Cuddeback 3.0 dig and have been using it for two seasons now. I have/use three of the Lexar 256mb cards, change the card out weekly, leaving the cam in the woods.

This cam has taken over 10,000 pics with few problems but I do occasionally get the Cam Error thing. When it does occur, I can't get the camera to do anything so I pop a battery out/in,then disarm the camera, and change the card. It happened last week after the cam had taken only 7 photos. No additional photos were takenafter #7duringaweek where I usually get 200-300 pics at a very active location.

As this problem is only occasional I never thought much about it until I read this thread and saw where others were having the same trouble with more frequency.

Has anything been determined about the problem, is it the cards or the camera? Human/pilot error?

I have my cards numbered so the first thing I intend to do is note which card is in the camera if/when the problem occurs again then not use that cardagain until after the season is over. If it is a particular card that is causingthe problem,I can eliminate it once I learn which one. Are these cards warantied from Lexar or the retail outlet?

Is there a possibility that something we are doing such as changing batteries with a card in is causing the problem? I can't remember if I have the card in or out when I change batteries but never gave that much thought. Does it help or hurt to reformat a card? When or how often should a card be reformatted?
