Gremlins? Images Not Saving to Card on 5d Mark II?

[Michael Pancier]

Strangest thing happened to me yesterday evening while shooting fireworks. At some point, the images stopped saving. Don't know if I pressed something by accident in the dark, but all of a sudden, the images were still being taken (8-10 second exposures), but when the pic was over, nothing saved. I changed cards and got the same thing.

I was not getting any errors.

I don't know what I did, messing with the buttons, but it did manage to resume shooting and saving images.

Wonder if this has happened to anyone and/or if there is some button on the camera that an inadvertant push may cause this phenomena?

I did have mirror lock up; I wonder if I did something to keep it from recording.
