Your picture makes me think of this: Wierd line in the middle of the picture (1) Wierd line in the middle of the picture (2) Different, I agree, but exactly in the same place.

markhout Posted February 17, 2010 Share #3 Posted February 17, 2010 Yep, this is a memory error. If it is on the SD card, always reformat before re-using. If it is on your computer's harddrive - test the drive for errors. Same if it is your computer's memory. I had a similar error and found that I had a damaged memory chip in my Mac. Hope it does not re-appear! Mark Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope it does not re-appear! Mark Well, I don't think the problem comes from the SD card. Some other weird artifacts like this have been reported here on the M9. If the origine of the problem would reside on SD cards (as some people pretend), in the three and an half years since the M8 hit the market, M8 users would have also reported them. I cannot remember any report of similar artifacts on the M8. Maybe is just a firmware issue and it will be solved in future firmware versions.

brill64 Posted February 18, 2010 Author Share #5 Posted February 18, 2010 thanks for your response. i'm not overly concerned since it appeared just once and the dng is unaffected. it's a good idea to check over my mac's drives and ram to see if there's anything unusual, i hadn't thought of that..
