G

“Cannot Take Picture at
this time. Check the
following.

The camera back is
busy.

   The camera cannot be

electrically tripped.”

You have tried a
command (for example
Copy to Folder), and the
DCS 465 Camera Back is
still performing another
operation.

Wait for a short time (for
example wait until the red Card
Busy light on the camera back
stops blinking), and then try
again.

Message

Possible Cause

Suggested Solution

Mechanically tripped
cameras can not be
tripped with the Take
Picture button.

Take pictures using your cable
release.

“Cannot Take Picture at
this time. Disk is  FULL.”

The PCMCIA card in the
camera system is full.

If available, replace the current
PCMCIA card with another that
has space for additional images.

Or make room on the PCMCIA
card currently in the camera
back by saving images from the
card to your computer hard disk
with the Move to Folder
command (which includes the
option of deleting images after
they are moved), or by deleting
unwanted images from the card
with the software Delete button.

Or remove the card and, while
connected to the computer with
the driver image window
opened, shoot single images
which may be copied to a folder.
