Christoph13 Posted May 30, 2012 Author Share #21 Posted May 30, 2012 Advertisement (gone after registration) As I said, it has been resolved in the meantime and I am happily using my M8 again for some time already. BTW, one of the earliest signs of foreboding was an ever so faint, very high-pitched beep, only just audible, when the red lamp was on (writing to disk, I suppose) in combination with extended writing times. My hearing is very good, though, so the longer writing times may be a better predictor for some. It appeared as soon as the problem emerged and went away when the camera was back from Solms.

LucisPictor Posted April 19, 2013 Share #22 Posted April 19, 2013 I am digging out this thread, because I'd like to add that formatting the card with an 64bit Windows OS might cause the same error in the cam. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lct Posted April 19, 2013 Share #23 Posted April 19, 2013 Formatting the card through SDFormatter is a good move in my experience. https://www.sdcard.org/downloads/formatter_4/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jevidon Posted May 1, 2013 Share #25 Posted May 1, 2013 I also had an SD card that did the same thing. I changed cards and the M8 worked fine. I tried that SD card in my wife's Sony Alpha 33 and it worked fine for about 20 images and then read full on the Sony. I concluded that the card was the problem.

tobey bilek Posted May 1, 2013 Share #26 Posted May 1, 2013 Reformat the card to FAT32 in the computer, then again in the camera. Never delete images as that does not remove the items in the table of contents, ie directory. If it is full, no image can be assigned a storage location, ie card full. Buy a card from a trusted source, not Ebay. Sandisks are frequently forged and they do not work to spec. Do not use more than 16 GB. Super fast cards tend not to work well. The camera electronics are the limiting factor. Charge a "good" battery. Clean SD and battery contacts. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
