Card switching issue on A7riii??


Recommended Posts

On my A7riii, I had A Sony card in slot 1. I was shooting when the card filled up. It wouldn't let me view or delete anything off the card, and the camera also wouldn't let me switch to card 2. Since I only have one of the very expensive fast cards, I had to resort to using my other camera until I could get home and download images. Wondering if this is a firmware issue, or do I have yet another defective Sony product?

Are you using the menu settings correctly?  You can choose to have the two slots copy each other, switch from 1 to 2, put video on one card, stills on another, etc.  Don't blame Sony until you have fully explored the memory card features.  And you can get by , in most situations, without the "expensive fast cards" so you could have used a slower card in slot 1.  From the negative tone of your "yet another defective Sony product" one wonders why you purchased Sony in the first place?  Bad track record for your personally or are you extrapolating?
