Originally posted by bobell69 I've noticed that after I import images from my SD cards into Lightroom that when I put the SD card back into the camera I get a warning that the SD card is not formatted. I don't recall getting this warning or this problem in the past? Is this camera related or is there some configuration issue with my Lightroom that I need to adjust?
Is this a consistent and repetitive problem? Does it occur only when using LR or simply by removing and re-inserting the card in/out of the camera?
If the formatter suggested by Stevebrot doesn't help, it could be an indication of a bad SD card. More unlikely but possible is the camera.
Static is also always an issue... it's a finicky thing to eliminate completely but also not a terribly likely thing to affect the SD card with normal handling.
I've seen this happen once when using my laptop with LightRoom.
Another time I had to format a bunch of cards (in camera simply because I was in the field without my laptop). One of the cards came up with a not formatted error.
None of the cards had an issue a second time and I've been using these same cards for two years+ now. So I put it down to static or other anomaly.
If tis is a regular incident... something is wrong. (... "thank you captain obvious") 8-)
