Nikon D200 Corrupt Files

If you have had the experience of corrupt files using the Flagship Nikon D200 camera, join the crowd. After some discussion with another D200 owner, the only thing we can pinpoint is the battery power to the camera (at the time of the corrupt files) was down and out.

Typically one battery may be dead and the other at 35-percent or less when this happens.

Talk about frustrating - you can see the images, they are there, and they have all the taste and feel of real image files. Alas, when you try to do anything to actually open them, nothing doing. You can try a can opener on your flies and it's a big NO GO.

These files are, for all intents and puropses, lost to the nether world of 1's and 0's never to return.

Coming soon: a 20-thousand exposure update on the D200 !
