The first 1DXIIs are out

I just checked the last ~250 photos I shot sending RAW to the Lexar 128GB 3400x CFast and jpegs to the CF card. None of the RAW files exhibited this anomaly.

A few weeks ago I went on a photographic workshop and took ~8000 photos on Canon 1DX MK II bodies shooting RAW exclusively to the 128 GB Sandisk CFast card without any issues. I always downloaded the photos every evening and reformat the card in the camera whenever I finish downloading.

Based on the discussion maybe this is something that occurs when once records both RAW and sJPEGs to the same card? Sending RAW files to the CFast card and JPEGS to the CF might be a good workaround although it is not ideal.

Good luck,

John

Rang supplier about poblem with 1Dxii Raw file at bottom right hand corner and emailed follow up to them. They quickly arranged a return of the camera and they are arranging a replacement. Have to wait for more stock to arrive. So far very pleased with response.

In my case, I was just shooting RAW. And in the latest incident, I had reformatted with the Sandisk Full Format tool and performed an in-camera format.

Someone pointed out that while the SanDisk 128GB card has the same read speed rating as the 64GB (both cards have 515 MB/s), the 128GB card has nearly double the write speed. That could be why that card fails more. I have not used the tiny bundled card very much, but I have not seen any issues with it yet.

Glad you are seeing good results. Hard to determine what the cause it at this point.

This is highly alarming. I wonder when Canon will give some feedback on this (could be the camera or a bad batch of sandisk cards though...).

I strongly suspect it's something in the firmware of the camera that needs correcting.

What I found with the 1DXii bottom right hand corner problem is that when I viewed the raw files with Windows 7, FastStone Image Viewer there was no problem in the bottom right hand corner. When viewed/edit with Adobe Camera Raw 9.5.1 the problem is there. The problem is there with Lightroom Cc 2015.5.1 64 bit version. When you view the file with Canon DPP ver 4 the problems NOT there. When you edit with Canon DDP ver 4 the problem IS there.

You are likely viewing the embedded jpg within the raw file. I ran into that studying another issue.

Thanks, learnt something new today. That makes sense on what I'm seeing. Always thought that Lightroom made the JPegs when importing into library. This information, you brought to light, ties into why other raw viewering software works.
