    Hmmmm...I was hoping for a solution without taking the camera apart because if I disassembled the camera, the memory card issue would be the least of my problems. Good video though.

    Excellent video - Fortunately your demonstration led me to take a closer look inside of the SD card slot and I was able to remove a small bit of plastic that had broken off of an SD card - I used a nylon cable tie as a tool as it is not likely to damage sensitive parts. I did NOT take the camera apart.
    Thanks for the help in getting my camera back in working order

    This could be a worthwhile video if only you slowed it down and explained what you did - I still have no idea what you did.

      As i said, any question, just ask....
      basically, i removed a piece of plastic from a Sd card, put an bendend pin straight and cleaned the slot!
      that was enought!
      ;)

      +Rui Bento Alves thanks for replying - I would really like to fix mine but I am too frightened to attempt it myself. Could you quote me to fix mine?

      "Could you quote me to fix mine?"
      hm? sorry... i didnt understand the meaning! Can you explain me better? (im Portuguese! :) )
      However, do you know already what is the isseue with your camera?
      Wich model is?
      Camera says: "no card in camera?
      Theres a warped pin or broken?
      cheers

      +Rui Bento Alves The SD card got condensation on it, I was up a mountain and the sudden change in weather and pressure on way down caused error message say unable to read card. When I removed the card I noticed that the pins were wet. Its not worked since. It will switch on when I have a full battery in but seems to shorts it out very quickly. No other formatted cards have worked. Its a 500D I really love that camera it was my first DSLR. A quote is a price for you to have a go and fix it for me and I pay you for your time.

      Hi there!
      I would be pleased to fix the camera for you! However, im from Portugal.... i dont think that the shiping coast would be a good deal!
      If you saw that the pins were wet, it seems that its the origin of all issues of the camera.
      You need to open the camera and clean all circuit boards, conections and contacts!
      It looks that during the water/fog exposer, in some parts of the eletronics ocurred a "chemical deposit" between some contacts causing short circuit and bad conections!
      Do not try to turn on the camera again! Remove the battery also!
      Does the others parts of the camera worked? Display, flash, shutter, etc?
      If so, its most likely that, after the cleaning of the PCB´s the camera will work fine! :)
      An cell phone/electronic technician should be able to performe the cleaning!
      If you need any help, let me know!
      greetings!

    Thank your for this post! I had this exact problem and your video was just what I needed! I looked inside my card slot and sure enough....there was a chip from a memory card! I removed it and the problem was instantly solved!

    Thanks for the video. I'll probably take mine apart today sometime. Hopefully it's the same issue. What did you use to clean it? I saw a brush and a canister with compressed air but it looked like you used something else.

      Obrigado para postar vídeos sobre arrumar câmeras.
      Não acha que o pedacinho teria saído da misma forma sem abrir a câmera aspirando o slot? Também pelo video ser muito no alto não entendi o que tu diz com o dremel, lixou o óxido dos contatos/pins?

  • @samucabral
    @samucabral 9 ปีที่แล้ว

    Amazing! I've never saw how it looks on the inside.
    Maybe it's just an utopia but... how impossible would be to replace a card slot board for a faster one? Or how make it faster...

    • @RuiBentoAlves
      @RuiBentoAlves  9 ปีที่แล้ว

      Samuel Cabral Hi there,
      Im not shure if changing only the SD slot board would improve!
      Theres also the buffering, the internal camera memory, and, of cours, the speed of the card!
      But, nevertheless, hat a nice point!

    This video was helpful, i have a T2I and it stopped turning on, the little switch when you slide in the sd cover (not shut, but first shut cover, and then slide the cover in place seating it for shooting, the plastic tooth engages the switch) and there is an issue at this point. I'm thinking that bypassing the switch (close the connection so that camera always believes the sd cover is seated correctly see th-cam.com/video/yYlQaxk-fv0/w-d-xo.htmlm49s ) would be a good enough fix for me. There are three power switches on the camera that I know of, the battery cover, the on and off switch on top, and then the sd cover too, perhaps another at the lens? Anyhow, may try to blow out that little switch area, or have to do something similar to what you did.

    Obrigado por compartilhar Rui. Tive um problema porém ao abrir a minha, acabei espanando a cabeça de dois parafusos. Existe alguma forma de removê-los? Levei na assistência da Canon e eles querem 650 reais só pra remover os pedaços de cartão do compartimento.
    Muito obrigado novamente.

    On my 6d sometimes error pop up that write protection on sd card in on. i gave it to service center but they said that pcb needs to be changed and the cost is it. is it really a problem on the pcb or is it better to change just the sd card slot from a local (unauthorised) service center

    I try to formatting my SD card 4GB SanDisk Extreme III... but my camera not formatting ... when I press ok to format then the camera freeze and nothing happen, doesn't matter if I put it on or off ... still shows formatting and nothing happen, if I don't take out the battery then it holds like that til the battery is out of energy (I try a whole night without anything happens) ... haven't had any problems before, this happens when I move over the pictures to the computer ... I have tried to format it on the computer in all different formats ... but nothing works ... how to do?

      I just made a small search at ebay and you can buy from China only the sd card slot only for (more or less) 20USD!
      Therefore i think that's its possible!

      I did not know exacly what was the problem. Therefore, i open the camera and check for issues. i found a piece of plastic from and SD card and pull up all the connector for better connection...
      well it solved the problem! :)
      Also, for 30$ you can buy at Ebay an New SD Slot Board. if you put a new it will probably solve your problem.
