catastrophic failure!! BMCC-MFT/Sandisk
Posted: Sun Sep 15, 2013 12:54 am
Hi Guys
Hope this will not happen to any one.
Got BMCC MFT last week along with other lens and listed sandisk 240GB extreme.
After reading the forum on corrupted SSD data issues, I made sure I formatted the SSD properly using MAC and tested its recording and properly readable before starting the shoot.
On the set we were shooting a scene in 2.5K RAW and when almost after 2 hours, may be because the disk is full, The red REC text started blinking, and then it stayed RED as if its recording. It stayed like that for long time until I powered down the camera.
Once I started the CAM again it showed me no SSD.
Because we were recording for long time, and being first time user of this BMCC MFT, I assumed that this is the behavior of this camera when disk is full. It dint even allowed me to play the clips. So we packed and left the set as we almost covered all he shoot for the day.
When I reached home and connected the disk to the Win 7 system, I could able to see the drive letter but when I clicked it, It gave the message format the drive before using. Then after cancelling the message box, I see "Cyclic Redundancy Check error"
Then I tried in the mac mac and immediately mac gave the message disk is not usable and gave option to only Eject the disk
THAT'S IT AND I AM NOT ABLE TO ACCESS THE FILES THAT WE SHOOT FOR THE DAY. DONT KNOW WHOM TO BLAME.... BMCC OR THE SSD
In any case if this happens it will be a huge loss for any production company.
Please let me know how to proceed. I have already tried to retrieved data using some HDD recovery software but in vain.
Anyone please let me know if you came across this situation and found a solution.
OR should I just return the BMCC MFT and SSD and go into 5D3 and ML.
Please Help!!!!!!
Hope this will not happen to any one.
