Question
I have a sony dsc -s 600 digital still camera and uses memory stick pro duo as add on memory.recently I inserted a 512 MB memory stick pro duo but when I connects to the computer the memory detected is only 251 MB and the number of images that can be stored  displayed by camera is nearly half of what actually a 512 MB memory stick can hold.I formatted the memory stick twice but the problem persists .please help.  

Answer
A. Ravi,

Try looking at the card with a computer....  use a card reader.  Perhaps the "format" is failing and there are corrupted files on the card.  If that's not it and the format is working, then I would have to say the card is defective.
