Eos R6Mii SD Card Issue and Slow Wifi Transfer
1

Hi just wanna check if anyone here owning a R6Mii also have experienced some of the below SD Card related issues? I have experienced those issues on two different brand SD cards and one is even brand new.

1. Occasionally the camera will not recognise the card in slot 1 upon camera switch on. New photos or playback only on the second card in slot 2. This may only be resolved upon few rounds of reboot or remove the second SD card to force the camera to read the SD card 1.

2. The camera takes extra long time (like 5 seconds) to turn on with red light blinking (indicating card reading), usually accompanied with the above issue. The camera is just black screen and not responsive till the light goes off.

3. The continuous file name sequence jump or even file folder name rollback, also could be due to the above issue 1.

Other than the card, the wifi photo transfer to the iPhone (IP13 pro max with latest IOS) seems slow especially when compared with my old Sony A7M4 file transfer over the phone app (all original sized JPEG). It can take up to 10+ seconds in extreme case to transfer one file. The speed also seems quite inconsistent with sometimes the time reduced to under 5 seconds for photos of similar size.
