Have you tried resetting the camera? It may be that the firmware is corrupted in loading and it just needs to be rebooted. I'd also use a photo recovery utility like "F-Recovery" to recover your card. SOmetimes it's the card that gets corrupted.

Unfortunately, I don't know how to reboot it. I think it must be the camera since all of my cards have the same problem. Thanks for your help!! Jim

If all your cards have the same problem, then I agree with you, that points to the camera. On page 111 of your manual it details the "two button reset" procedure:

The camera settings listed below can be re stored to default values by holding the [BKT] and [4 zone button with circle in middle] buttons down together for more than two seconds (these but tons are marked by a green dot).[/url]
