Canon EOS R50 Corrupts Photos

popesaitu — Mon, 27 Nov 2023 15:59:27 GMT

Good day, i greatly need your assistance, my Canon R50 after shooting about 300 photos, any photo or video taken after this is corrupt. I thought the memory card was the problem, but i've tried several ans its still the same. This makes my work extremely painful as i use my camera for sports photography.

A little more information would be helpful. Exactly which memory card(s) are you using? Full size or Micro SD with an adapter? Have they been formatted in the camera? Using a Canon battery or third-party version?

Restore the camera to its defaults and try it with JPEG's.

If the corruption comes back, contact Canon.

There are no updates listed yet, but I suspect there will be one, soon.

Until then, just get multiple cards and shoot about 200 images on a card.

I'm using a Samsung Evo plus micro SD with it's adapter and also a lexar 633x micros SD with it's adapter and one was formatted in the camera but both still experienced corrupted images. I used the canon battery. I'll retry again and see

OK I'll give it a try and see. Though I preferred shooting with Raw for editing

micro SD's are bad JuJu. They fail at the worst times. Try a full size card.

Also be careful to not purchase media cards from Amazon or similar as they often have counterfeit cards.

It would be best to trust well-known brands only from. Many of Canon's authorized resellers would carry media cards. e.g. B&H Photo and Adorama to name a couple.
