Re: Re: SONY C:13:01 ERROR

Jim Watson Posted Aug 25, 2004, in response to:

I have both the Mavica FD100 and the CD500 currently, and have owned 3 mavicas previous to these. I stopped using the FD100 over a year ago because it makes recording noises then produces the C:13:01 format error every time I take a picture and it tries to save the image. I have never used the memory stick nor do I own a memory stick. Is there a solution to this problem? The more current problem, is with the CD500, Sometimes the C:13:01 disc error flashes after taking some picture and then trying to look at them later. This is beginning to happen a little more often now. It also will take pictures, and when I finalize, some cant be opened and are lost. I have heard that this is a problem with the camera's reaction to certain brands of mini-cd. Can you shed any light on either of the problems I have had. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Some people do have problems with certain brands of mini-CDs, but this is not the most common cause. What actually happens is that the mechanism that moves your laser back and forth across the CD in order to read it will become bent or (rarely) worn. If not repaired, you'll get that error more and more often until it quits working altogether and that dreaded error code is all you ever see. The camera needs to be disassembled to the point where there mechanism is, repaired, and then put back together. Eureka! No more error C:13:01! We have repaired several of these CD models, with the CD1000 being the most popular one to have trouble. Contact me, and we can get it taken care of. A Sony service center will often charge around $300 or more, but most we have been able to repair most of the CD model cameras for $50 to $75.
