Canon warns against use of SanDisk CFast cards with EOS-1D X Mark II

It's been said the issue is with images less than 16MB, so I think rather than the card not being fast enough (which would affect larger images too) the issue is either:
(1) Images that are less than the card's erase block size (which I'm guessing is 16MB, although that seems large) aren't written immediately as it wants some more data to arrive so it only does one erase/write cycle rather than writing this data then erasing/writing again (plus table updating, as every write will go to a different part of the flash) when a little more turns up.
(2) The card's write buffer is 16MB and the data is sitting there waiting to be written to the flash.
Then in both cases a firmware bug means on power-off the data doesn't get written successfully. Of course there's also (3) which is a combination of the two.

Jun 30, 2016permalink

Oh and (4) The data is written but the table saying where it is doesn't get updated, as you wouldn't want to write that all that often. (In a mechanical disk Sector 12345 is always at the same point on the disk, with flash it will move about with every write so you need a table saying where it is now.)

I have a similar problem but in my case it's with an Olympus E-M1 and a couple of Lexar SD HCI 32GB cards. The first image after switch-on is often but not always corrupted. I've had the camera's CPU replaced for other reasons but the problem persists. I format often and always in camera.

Jun 30, 2016permalink

Plus, Sandisk (as well as Samsung and other major brand name cards out there) has been proven in many tests and studies to be reliable, so again I'm sticking with this is a CANON software/hardware problem, not the card. I wouldn't be surprised if it happens with Lexar, Samsungs, and other CF cards (particularly the low-speed cards).

Jun 29, 2016permalink

Since Samsung aren't arguing (see link above) this is most unlikely. Plus no way are Canon going to annoy a bunch of Pros by misleading them, it would cost them a ton of business.

Jun 30, 2016permalink

just how many CFAST 2.0 cards are in use out there in cameras for you to stake that claim?

Glad my camera doesn't use CF cards. And the one i had that did, I never had a problem. This sounds like a software/hardware glitch, and NOT the card or the brand.

Minimum write speed guarantee of 30MB/sec. That is really slow compared to CFast (2.0). The Lexar 256GB CFast cards are writing in excess of 400MB/sec.

The 1Dx2 is way better with CFast, just some teething pains with any new(ish) standard.

Jun 28, 2016permalink

more than fast enough?

4K at 60 fps is something like 800mb/sec

Jun 29, 2016permalink

If 800Mb/sec is fast enough then there would be no need for XQD nor CFast. The 1Dx2's 16fps at ~30MB is 480MB/sec and the D5's 12fps at ~43MB is 500MB/sec. Faster cards help maintain the buffer so the cameras can keep shooting at top speed. It's not a common occurrence but I've hit the buffer limit on my 1Dx and 1D4 occasionally.

Uh huh. It's not Canon's problem, but Canon is correcting it with a firmware in early July? Unless SanDisk is writing code in Canon's firmware for them, I'd definitely say it's Canon's problem.

Jun 28, 2016permalink

It looks like the actual "bug" is with the SanDisk CFast cards. I conjecture that they experience a write cache-commit delay of the last block (of apparently 16MB) sent to the card. There is also probably an API call in the CFast standard that can force a cache commit. My guess is that Canon will now force, rather than assume, the commit during the power-down sequence.

Jun 28, 2016permalink

If that is the problem with these cards, then how come other camera brands do not suffer from this issue?

They most likely do, but Canon uses CFast, other's XQD. There is no much CFast out yet.

There's probably a very large number of these cards around. It seems like something that could be fixed very easily in firmware (e.g. store a dummy image and delete it before shutting off?), so they might as well do it. Doesn't imply camera error.

Jun 28, 2016permalink

FredVasilescu

It's very likely Canon is working with SanDisk to address this problem. So ýes,there might be some code from SanDisk in the new f/w release. 3

Jun 28, 2016permalink

@Kennethe B - It may be that SanDisk, for certain commands, is prematurely reporting "operation complete".

Might be a performance optimization gone wrong... Wouldn't be the first time a performance optimization by a flash manufacturer interacted negatively with another feature. For example, I have it from a very good off-the-record source that the infamous Samsung Superbrick problems which affected quite a lot of 2011/2012-era Samsung eMMC chips (such as those used in all Galaxy S2 models) were the result of a performance optimization interacting in an unexpected fashion with the eMMC/SD "secure erase" function. (In these cases, a secure erase command could, in certain cases, cause permanent unrecoverable wear leveller data corruption, effectively bricking the eMMC itself to the point where not even JTAG recovery houses could fix dead phones)

It may be that a certain command sequence that is 100% OK per the CFast specification triggers a SanDisk wear leveller bug.

Jun 29, 2016*permalink

A little more on the issue I described above - It affected maybe 0.1% or less of users. But scale it across thousands of users, and Bad Things happen. Samsung originally, rather than use the kernel patch I linked in another post, altered their recovery binary to not issue secure erase. So if someone ran "standard" AOSP 4.0 recovery binaries - 0.1% of them would permanently damage the eMMC because the eMMC claimed to be standards-compliant but wasn't.

Samsung went out of their way to suppress any information that the chips might be defective for over a year. (Google discovered the issue during Galaxy Nexus development, forced Samsung to fix the chip, but Samsung kept using buggy chips in their own phones. Samsung went out of their way to punish the Google employee who slipped up and mentioned to someone that the problem bricking hundreds of devices was a known issue.)

Jun 29, 2016*permalink

wear leveling happens behind the scenes.

it's difficult to say if the camera would have knowledge that sandisk is moving blocks around.

then it powers down quickly.

in theory it shouldn't be a problem.

or sandisk is reporting that a write has completed, when it's still in temporary volatile cache.

I'm also curious on where the heck are all these cameras that use CFAST 2.0 like some are blathering on about..

Jun 29, 2016*permalink

@rrccad I really wouldn't be surprised (since I raised it as a possibility) that the Sandisk is prematurely reporting a complete write in certain situations.

A good parallel to this is NFSv2 vs NFSv3 - NFSv2 requires the server to only report that a write is complete when it is 100% committed to disk. However some servers can be put into "dangerous mode" where they report completeness early (a violation of the spec but a MASSIVE performance improvement). NFSv3 allows for non-synced writes (with a way for the client to force a flush), but imagine an NFSv3 server that reported "operation complete" for certain syncs when it wasn't actually 100% done. May be a similar thing in these Sandisk cards.

Jun 29, 2016permalink

Why Canon why?
Second BIG problem with the 1Dx MKII and playing the blame card is really poor.

IF this problem is caused by Sandisk then why oh why Canon do other cameramanufacturers NOT suffer from this problem?

Its really poor to blame others while the problem described more sounds like a buffer problem with the 1Dx MKII.

How can you blame Canon for Sigma badly reverse engineering the lens mount? Sigma just didn't properly implement the mount protocol.

Jun 28, 2016permalink

@photenth - Yeah. It's normal and happens ALL the time that when new bodies are released, they don't always play nice with existing third-party lenses because the bodies use new features or command the lens in ways not previously expected.

Like Sigma HSM lenses and Pentax live-view bodies for 1-2 years - Severe hunting. Most likely Pentax didn't use focus motor speed control for normal PDAF, but had the capability in SDM lenses. Then they released a liveview body which needed motor speed control and BAM - Sigma lenses would hunt constantly without ever locking. (CDAF needs the lens to slow down enough for the body to be able to keep up. Same reason Sigma's SA-mount lenses needed firmware updates to work with the MC-11 but their EF-mount didn't - the SA-mount MC-11 firmware release was VERY likely a rollup of their EF-mount "cine body compatibility" releases.)

It's called a "workaround".

When a piece of hardware does not meet spec, and you determine exactly HOW it is non-spec-compliant, you can work around the problem by avoiding the trigger condition. See, for example:

Is it Linux's fault that some Samsung MMCs suffer unrecoverable damage as a result of a command that is part of the MMC spec version that Samsung claims the part is compliant to? No - it's Samsung's fault. But once it was discovered that the Samsung parts were noncompliant, the operating system was changed to not use the feature that Samsung screwed up.
