I'm unhappy to report data loss on this card, a lot I might add. Never, have I seen this much data loss. Took me a minute to figure out it was the card as I started getting -50 error's, which when dropping to a CLI, I got invalid arguments when trying to copy from BASH. Then reviewing in post, corrupt RAWs, 2000+ of them. I'm fuming.

Not Pro-grade, at all.

Guess I need to go back to my Sony Toughs, never had a problem with em. Just 128GB came be limiting.

sorry to hear, it would be a killer in event photography

sony toughs or sandsk for me

I've NEVER had that many images lost in a single go, ever. And, I've only ever had two card faults, in my time of shooting digital (before this).

This sort of thing is why I can see dual card slots for professional use.

A single loss could cost you not just the fee for the event, but reputation, too.

that is true

but I only buy sandisk and sony tough

I shoot RP and M6II in tandem to back up shots

that said I'm also taking my 7d2 to the event I have this month - need to get paid

7d2 is an event camera

R7 would also be an event camera
