Problem with some images.
1

Every now and then a square block is misplaced in my image.  It usually shows near the bottom of the image.

Take a look at this and give me some idea of what is going on. Olympus EPM2.

Error in the jpg file.

Either your camera or your memory card is doing something wrong. A tiny error in the jpg file can cause a block to shift.

Suggestion: try a different memory card. Second suggestion: try shooting raw+jpg and check whether it goes wrong with both.

Enjoying the Olympus OM-D E-M5.

Re: Error in the jpg file.

Thanks. I have noticed some errors with my card. I will change cards and see if the issue reappears.

I usually shoot RAW only.

So far it appears it was the memory card. Thanks for pointing me in the direction of what should have been obvious.
