Canon Announces Occasional Image Disappearance Problems with Digital SLRs
Canon has announced two (similar) problems affecting five of their digital SLR cameras. In short, captured images may disappear when shot on the EOS-1Ds Mark II, EOS-1D Mark II, EOS20D, EOS 20Da and the EOS Kiss Digital N. They added that “firmware updates to fix these defects will be released upon completion”.
From Tech-On!:
One of the two defects is the loss of images buffered in the buffer memory. This problem occurs when the camera is set to a mode to simultaneously save data in the RAW and JPEG (high image quality) formats.
(…)
Another defect occurs when any of these cameras are used with the Lexar Professional Series 80x CompactFlash (CF) Card. (…) The card’s firmware is claimed to be the cause of this problem.
