You probably know this but if you want the camera to keep using the same type card, then don’t close the door when you take it out. Leave it open and then when you replace the card, the camera will remain on that card type.

In one of the recent firmware updates, a 'Priority card' option was added. Yellow Spanner, tab 1, 'Record func+card/folder sel.", scroll down to 'Record/play'.

That will make it switch back to the selected card as soon as it's back in the camera.

I don't think that will help with the situation described in the first port, but it might. It helps for my use case
