Hello, While recording a very long scene in 4K 422 I needed to eject a card, and I mistakenly interpreted the blinking light as an indication of a full card, while it of course - as I now know - indicates recording. I think Canon or Sony has or has had a camera where lights blinking idicating a full card. Well, whatever the reason - the card is now not possible to read from a computer. We can see that it is almost full215 GB of a 256 GB card. But we can´t access the footage, unfortunately. Is it possible to recover this material? First of all, do you have a suggestion to how to access the files? kind regards, Tore Vollan

Dear Tore,

there is a good chance if you put the compromised card into the camera again. The camera will try to recover the clip.

Best regards
