SP Camera problem: saving images

Hi, Sometimes (not every time) when I take a picture with the camera on my SP, it takes either an age to save the picture, or indeed completely fails to save the picture at all (I just get the spinning circles then it fails to save it). Any ideas?

Cheers

Paul

Do you save your images to the SD card or to the internal storage? You can check if you open camera > settings icon > data storage. 


Do you experience the same behavior if you change the storage space? 

You can also try to clear data under settings > apps > all > camera. Restart the phone and try again.

Hi, I use the SD storage (32GB card), as I have a lot of photos. I will check using internal, but the behaviour is intermittent anyway with the SD card storage, sometimes it works fine, other times not at all.

Okay, wasn't working for SD card, worked fine storing to phone, switched back to SD card and now it's working again! So annoying ...

Strange! If the problem comes back it may be a good idea to format your SD card or try with another SD card in your phone.
