Hello, first post here :)

I've had the card for about 2 months and I have been using it extensively with my 50D (ML Raw video).
It's been pretty consistent with good speeds ~80-100MB/s .

Recently a problem occurred while doing my standard routine:
take card out of camera >card goes into card reader > files from card go into computer > format card to fat32 > back into camera
This worked, until recently; The camera gives an error message: "Card not formatted. Format card with this camera", I go into the menu and try to format it but there, the camera gives another error message: "Cannot format. Change card."

I thought this was a problem with a bent pin inside the camera, so I examined the pins carefully and all are in order. If I try my other CF cards, (Sandisk Extreme 4GB and 8GB), they work every time I insert them (it doesn't matter if they are empty or have ML on them).

So if anyone knows anything, it would be really helpful, a big shoot is coming up and I don't have time to wait for a new card to arrive  :'(
