Error message Full

I am getting a "Full" indicator in the screen but there are no photos
on my card. I tried renaming my file in case all the numbers on my
ND50 were used up. None of tis helped. I tried to take the card out
and re-insert but to no avail. Any ideas what the problem might be?

Reformat in the camera menu should clean it up. You should do this every
time anyways if you haven't been.

Some platforms you might be using will have a "trashcan" feature, that
even though you think you deleted all the pictures on a computer while
the memory card were mounted, they're still there, possibly in a hidden
directory. Make sure you "empty the trash" if that's appropriate.
Also, try reformatting the card as well.

Thanks did that. I meant renaming the folder.

There may be a limit for the number of folders in the root directory
(depending what file system is in use). Perhaps that is the limit being
hit?
