40D trashing my 8MB CF Cards?
I'm typing this in SW Florida after taking many great images the past two days on a SanDisk Ultra 8 GB card. Problem! My images this evening seem gone, with an error message about folders and saying no images found. I realize there are many card recovery programs so have hope. No need to cover those options again on this post. But this is my second card in a week, 8GB, that has done this. I sent one back and got this one with same problem. This leads me to believe that my 40D is doing something to the file management on these cards and the cards themselves were not defective. Hate to think that the images I took alongside Alfred, Fabs, Jim, and Blake are gone. When I get home, I'll download the best recovery program I can find but seems my camera can not use these 8 GB cards. Suggestions welcome . .going to have a few beers right now and sulk.
