Garmin Oregon 550

Recommended Posts

I upgraded from the vista HCx to the Oregon 550 and while there is a huge difference in the two, one is better then the other. My problem is after a shot or three the camera just freezes and I have to hold the power button for ten seconds to power off and then power back on. This has happened allmost all the time I use the camera. I did install the new firmware but it still does it. Garmin Canada has never heard of this and suggested I had a bad one with a bug and that I should replace it. GPS City was great and gave me a new one. Well a few shots later and this one froze. AHHGG..

\ Has anyone with a Oregon 550 experienced this glitch.

Are you storing your images on the SD card or internal memory? I have mine going to the SD card and have never experienced this problem.

Internal as I was using a mapsource SD. I tried another unit and had the same issue. I said na and went with the 450. I like the copper trim to boot.
