Hello all. I just received a mint condition NX2000. It seems to take photos fine, although I cannot sync it with any of my computers. When I try it merely states "No card" on the camera display. I have been using it for a few days without a memory card, and I don't know if it is saving any of the photos. I just ordered a 32GB Samsung EVO micro SD card yesterday, and will try it when it arrives.

I have installed the disk that came with the camera with the iLauncher software on two computers. One running Windows 7 and one running Windows 10 (from some web browsing it appears that the software may not be supported by Windows 10, although it let me install it on my laptop and upgrade the software.

As the camera is a few years old, I ordered two Powerextra BP1130 batteries and a wall charger. I thought this would solve the problem with the camera not powering up when I rotate the top dial from off to on. It did not. The only way to turn the camera on (and it works every time) is to put the power switch to the on position and take out the battery and reinstall it.

Any help other NX2000 forum owners have would be greatly appreciated!

I can't help with the power issue but I can tell you the camera does not save any images without an SD card. It will show you the last photo you take but not save it. There's no internal storage so any shots you've taken without a card don't exist unfortunately.
