My newly acquired 5D Mark III does something that I find really odd.
When I have occasion to remove the CF card for any reason and re-insert it, the camera switches to the SD card. It does this even when the camera has been turned off. My 1D Mark IV will do this, but only if the camera is left on when the CF card is removed, and never when turned off. This can be really a pain in the butt if I'm not paying attention or forget to check before I start shooting again.
Both cards are set in the camera to 'Standard' mode, not to switch or record to both.
I've looked through the manual but can find no mention of this. Am I missing a setting somewhere? This is really annoying.
