I wonder if anyone has come across the problem/fault before on the 1D Mk2?
Its intermittent and has happened twice in the past 4 or 5 weeks.
I took three photographs this morning, but the camera would not display them on the rear LCD screen. All power was on and everything showed A ok on all the other LCD displays.
I fired the shutter twice again, nothing displayed. Eventually, the fault cleared and I could examine the first three photographs, no problems with them.

However, the two images I took whilst the fault was present were blank, not black but a pale yellow colour and all the EXIF information was there.

I trying to narrow down the problem is the camera or is it the SD card?
The SD card is a Lexar Professional 2GB 133x, when I first got the card in January, at the first time of use it provided me with a number of corrupt files, but none since.

When I first had this problem about 1 month ago, I'm about 75% certain it was with this card. I'm hoping it's the card and not the camera.

So, has anyone else come across this? Here's me hoping the cards U/S.

Thanks
Dave

I had this same problem once only a few months back.. Threw the card and never had it since.
Coincidence? who knows.
