Files that won't open in DCU5

**barondla** · 10-18-2019, 08:43 AM

Last outing shot about 150 photos. Stuck SD card in computer and saved to two external hard drives. 3 images show thumbnails in DCU but won't open. The progress bar at the bottom of page moves about 1/3 way then stops.Tried both eternal hard drives with no results.

Luckily they are standard shots and I have extras. Camera battery was fully charged. The SD card is a 64g Sandisk bought last month to use with the K-1. The shots are in the middle of the shoot. If it's a bad card it is interesting that later images work fine. images are Raw PEF files. Guess I need keep a second card in the K-1. Any ideas?
Thanks,
barondla

Appear to have the current version. Different day, same SD card and all pictures open fine. Weird.

Corrupt, I'd say.

You can put a 64Gb card in Slot One that takes the RAWs and a 32Gb in Slot Two that takes the JPGs - so you shoot RAW+DNG.

I suppose that you mean RAW+JPEG

You might reformat the card just in case.
