Sorry, I don't really understand your problem.

But, I do know:

  • The camera is programmed to stop working when the card door is open. This is to stop accidents happening. If you open the door while the camera is writing to the card, it'll start beeping and displaying a warning.
  • Have you tried formatting all the cards with the camera? That could potentially solve your problem.

I did  not know that . Well thats good. So the problem is that some cards, which I did try the format option, cause the camera not to fully turn on. Sometimes it makes beeps when the shutter button is on, at others its totally dead.  Change cards and it works.  It happened with all cards for a while, now only some cards - larger cards of >300GB or so.
