I encountered my first digitral snafu this weekend. I shot a wedding this past Saturday with a combination of film and digital. I was previewing/looking at the digitals as I went along so that I knew I was getting images. Well yesterday morning I popped the flash card into the reader and started viewing images. That is when I realized that I was missing 30 or so images. The missing 30 were between the sequence numbers of 60 to 90 roughly. I know that I had the images because I saw them at the wedding. Then I noticed that cameras clock had changed itself at number 90. Needless to say I got a good case of diarhea real quick. I then remembered that there "was" a freeware utility(it's not free now)that recovered data from any media. I located the utility from a friend and ran it on the flash card and recovered all the missing images.
Thank God for Imodium.......LOL
 
to Lexar.
I had a conference with my Nikon rep about this problem and we that we narrowed it down to the card as being the problem.
 
Man! That's scarry! Especially if they were key moment's!!

I feel these memory cards are too expensive to be that disposible. What causes such rapid deterioration -- is there more loss than images during deletion? Are the manufacturers researching and redesigning -- or is failure part of the plan to continue purchase/revenue flow??
