The person from whom I bought my M11-P says that he writes all images to IN, and only puts a SD in when he wants to copy IN images to SD which can then be uploaded to laptop with a card reader.

Honestly I'm so confused about what to do . . .

No problemo  😎 Menu page 4 > Storage Management > Storage Options > IN = SD. Did it since day one in May 2022 and my M11 did not explode yet 😉

the only IN = SD option I see is where it records DNG + JPG on both In and SD. 

What I'd like is a IN = SD where it's only recording DNG on both. I have no interest in jpgs. But doesn't look like that's an option so I chose DNG on IN and JPG on SD.

Strange, you shoot such lovely photos, imagine a DNG file is lost on IN, do you think you be happy with the JPG of your card?

you assumed I only wanted DNG on one storage when I said I had no interest in jpg. 

In reality I want TWO copies of DNG - one on IN and the other simultaneously written to SD. And as I said before, I don't see an option for that.

I think you want a feature that doesn’t exist.

IN=SD would give you that + JPG files you are not interested in and you don't have to keep.

This works and, contrary to previous speakers, it is not all that complicated. Select IN=SD for the storage options. If it says DNG + JPG, this does not mean that both will be recorded. Which files are stored on the SD card and in the internal memory at the same time is decided elsewhere in the menu, either in the status menu or on page 1 of the main menu. If you have only selected DNG there, only DNG will be saved in both memories. I hope it's clear now.

yes it's now clear, thanks for that!

I am not spending £8000 on a camera to have to use internal memory if I want to use SD cards. I presume most people don't get corruption issues on SD cards with latest firmware ?

I am using sd card with raw and internal memory with jpg, (simultaneously), and i haven't gotten any corrupt file with the new firmware.... i shot over 4k images already with it.... hopefully it stays this way.

It exists.  As noted above you can get two DNG files every time you click the shutter, one on internal memory and the other on the SD card.  I've been using the camera that way since purchase.

1) set File Format (middle of menu page 2) to DNG
2) set Storage Management (menu page 4) to (DNG+JPG on IN=SD)

Step 1 makes all mentions of JPG in step 2 irrelevant.  Step two is saying where the files selected in step 1 go.  Could be DNG only, JPG only, or DNG+JPG.

No issue at all with a new M11P bought to replace my old M10. 
I’m using the updated firmware, a SD card, a lot the App, never had that issue. 
Greetings & happy shooting 🙂
