Sounds like it's bust. You need to RMA it to Komputerbay. They are usually quite fast to replace broken cards.

yeah, i did, got two new ones already, a 64gb and a 128... i just wonder what caused the trouble though... you think it might have been caused by ML by any chance? or was it maybe a bad card all along... although it worked fine for a week....

i formatted the card with the 50d so i guess everything was fine, i was using it for a couple of days, even filled it completely one time. but suddenly the 50d froze and when i put the battery back in, it needed to be formatted again. so i tried to format it again, but it won't let me.

It was a komputerbay 1000x 32gb ... I really use a USB reader, but it was corrupted in camera. When I inserted the battery again, the 50d claimed the card was not formatted. Is it possible that the card was corrupted by ML?

ML froze during recording, saying one frame skipped... i had to remove the battery, after that my flash card is gone now, 50d and windows tell me it needs to be formated.
unfortunely they both can't do it. is the card lost?

yeah, it seems you can only see the frame before and after you record, not while you are recording...
the other thing is, you don't seem to have manual control over shutter, iso and aperture, am i right?

okay, i guess i made some progress, my mistake was looking for an M in the menu!
now i got the first mlv files... is there a way to copy them right off camera instead of going through a card reader?
unfortunately only a couple of frames, the write speed is not as expected, only between 50-60
my komputerbay cf should be fast enough, when benchmarking it is up to 84 write speed. what could be the cause of the low speed? is it the buffer mode?
thanks for your help and excuse my bad english!

thanks for pointing me to it!
i have it running now, but still can't select and load modules. i don't see the tab.
shouldn't there be a tab where i load the modules like raw_rec and mlv rec?
what am i missing?

hey guys,
i've been using ml for some time now on a 550d, but i'm still a noob when it comes to nightly builds and raw recording on my brand new very old 50d.
i know this is probably the wrong place to ask stupid questions, but i am overwhelmed by a million of open tabs and i think i just need someone to point me to the best build...
i'm willing to take any risk necessary to record a raw sequence in at least full hd (crop), so far i tried the latest nightly build for the 50d as well as the latest official final release.
in both cases i didn't get to load the necessary modules.
i would be trying this one next:
"UPDATE: June 11th

@GregoryOfManhatten's latest build (70MB/s capable raw video) - note ETTR is not currently working in photo mode

https://bitbucket.org/GregoryOfManhattan/magic-lantern/downloads/09june13-50D-45e63064ec08-70MB.zip"

any other suggestions? thank you!
