On my recent trip, Day 1, I pulled out card 1, tried to download the day’s images. Nada. Zip. Zero. WTF! Card back into camera, fiddled, eventually saw that everything was being recorded to card 2. I found that eventually, once card 2 filled up, new images then started recording onto card 1. But, really?
Thanks for confirming that it is not just me!
