EOS Rebel T2i Images not saving on SD card

fishers1976 — Fri, 22 Nov 2024 18:44:46 GMT

I’m having an issue with my camera not saving the photos to the SD card. It’s a brand new SD card which I’ve formatted to the camera. I’ve verified that all the settings are correct. The SD card is inserted correctly and the battery is charged. When I take a photo, it seems normal. The display looks like the photo was taken. However, when I go to view the photos, I get the message “No Image”. Nothing was saved to the SD card. Does anyone know what would cause this?

Is it a full size card or a micro card with adapter?

You can look in the slot and see if any of the fingers are bent.

Can you low-level format the card in the camera?

It’s a full sized card. Brand new. 128GB.

Yes. I can low level format. I will try that.

I accidentally hit the accept as a solution button.
I cannot select the low level format box. It will not go to that box. Also, I looked in the SD slot, but it is tough to see if anything is wrong.

I believe 128GB is supported, but the T2i works best with 32GB or smaller media.

What brand? Some off brands aren't real good. I use SanDisk. 128GB is a big card; IMO not needed. I use either 16GB or 32GB. They will hold a truckload of photos.

Thank you for the information. The manual says it can have up to 128GB. I also have a 16gb and it doesn’t work either. It is the SD card I’ve always used in the past, but now it doesn’t work.

It’s a SanDisk.

Do you have a computer or a laptop that has either a USB port or a memory card port?

If you do, one thing you can try is to take the card out of you camera and either insert it into the memory card slot on your device, or buy a card reader with a USB cable on the end and put it into the USB port on your computer.

See if you can see any image files on the card. One thing that crossed my mind is that you somehow might be looking in the wrong folder to review your images.

fishers1976,

Is it possible that you are accidentally formatting your card?

I know you said that you can't go to the low level formatting box, but that is sort of the default. If you hit OK, then the card formats. The reason I ask is that I just formatted my card, and I got the same message you did. "No Image".

Hmmm…strange.

I have an appointment with the Geek Squad at Best Buy tomorrow. I’m hoping they can figure out what’s causing that.
