What went wrong?

Hi All,
I had 90% of the shots from a shoot go bad. Below is an example.

From Private

Pics looked fine when I viewd them through the LCD during the shoot.

I always format the SD card in the camera before a shoot.
- Could this be a bad SD card?

I tried to recreate the issues by formatting the SD card again and taking some pics. But they were fine.
I just want to find the cause of the problem. Coz if it's the SD card I'll have to remove that card from my batch.

*** Not sure which forum to post this. So please move if this is not the correct place ***

Have you tried using other SD cards to try and isolate this issue? Go do that now so you can determine for yourself if it's just that one SD card. Or if it's the camera.

Yes, I tried with the same SD card and a different SD Card, but those pics were fine.

Looks like you may have a few bad sectors on the SD card. Did all the shots come out like this one or just a few. You can put the card in your computer and find out if there are bad sectors. Read the card then defrag it this will tell you if there are bad sectors.
