Hello Friends,

This might sound like a dumb question but the only way to be free of dumb, is to get rid of the dumb questions. I shoot with my Canon 550D (T2i) with SanDisk X3M PRO 32GB - 95MB/s Card at a Resolution of 1280x320, Aspect Ratio of 4:1 or 5:1, I get a couple bad frame looking like a Pink (could be purple) ribbon. I really hate this and was wonder if Frame Skipping would be a solution, Any help would be greatly appreciated, how can I solve this problem?

What are the Pros & Cons of Frame Skipping?

Try using ExFAT file system. And use MLV option for files > 4 GB.

As far as frame skipping:

Pros: Allows longer (unlimited, I think?) continuous takes for higher resolutions, because will skip frames when the data processing/writing can't keep up with the data load.

Cons: Skips frames.
