Which model? 3500x or 3600x?

Canon is taking this very seriously. I just reported this on a Sunday, and they've already responded with a request for the corrupt image file. I'm impressed that level of support and one the reasons I stay loyal to Canon.

I do want to correct an aspect of my post regarding card corruption. This is not a card corruption per say (with missing data). Upon closer inspection, I identified what was going on with the left side of the frame. But there is still something odd with the color profile (and it just could be me - operator error) and more than likely has nothing to do with the CFast card.

I did send the images to Canon, but unfortunately, the card was already reformatted and I only had un-processed .dng's to send. :-[
