I have the same error. It happened after I uploaded my pictures directly from memory stick laptop for the first time. I have had the camera and the memory stick for a 2 years. I've tried to format the memory stick both by laptop and camera, but to no avail.

Hi To everyone who have the problem and want to recover a Photo loss. I just posted A new message on this subject and it works. +/- 70 % recoverd. Good luck to you all. Luc

Attach it to your computer and format the Memory Stick as 'FAT' Formatting as 'FAT32' or 'NTFS' will produce this error.

My Sony Mavica MVC-350 disccam writes directly to the small 156MB CD-RW. I have also used some 210MB CD-R discs. I also have experience with the FD-100 Memstick/floppy camera. I am wondering if the disc can be salvaged in the same manner as memory sticks (not by bending it ). I have a stack of C:1301 error discs. I have noticed this mainly occurs on a disc that becomes full. I have never had the problem on a disc less than 90% full. My suspicion is that as a disc approaches becoming full incoming image data commences to overwrite the master file table (MFT). I have developed the habit of never letting the battery go dead when writing to disc, never trying to squeeze one more shot or video onto the end of a disc. I know that many of the in camera manipulation fearures such as mark for print or resize rely on available (memory) disc space to execute properly. As a rule I now only fill the disc to 85%-90%capacity and recharge the battery when it has reached the 5 minute mark. I have not had any problems since developing these new habits.

ARGH!!! STUPID THING!!! I have the Sony T30, couldnt be happier with the camrea itself, but all of a sudden I was trying to format, and damn this stupid ERROR comes up!! I have tried everything, and just cant get it working again!! I am very sad, and dont know what to do!! Bloody technology!!! Ive been reading through the comments, is there actually a solution!? Thanks!!
