My new G1W-CB using a transcend class 10 16gb card, will have three or four corrupt files in a hours use they are spaced out in the middle of the hour it does not corrupt in the same place with each use. I format before each time I used it. I am using factory setting. and cool weather. what should I do?
 
Have you tried another memory card?
What firmware version are you using?
From what you have written, these files aren't the last files that are being written before power is removed from the camera? They are files in the middle of your trip, and not at the end?

I have only tried the one card, I will try another. I will check the firmware. The camera is brand new, blueskysea. And correct the front and end are fine.
 
Do you have screensaver set? or is the screen on all the time? Default setting is off, not sure if heat could be an issue.
Have you tried viewing the same files on the camera itself? Do they appear fine on the camera or are they corrupt when viewing on the camera as well?
 
Yes the screen is on, I will try with it off. No I have not tried viewing with the camera. good idea. I will try these things tomorrow. and check what firmware. Thanks for the help.
 
Mr. G-ball I tried the camera yesterday. I turned on the screen saver, used the same card. The firmware version is 2015.0911.11. When I got home there were a total of 41 frames. I put the card in the pc and frame 25,28.30. showed corrupt. I put the card back in the camera, and viewed, when I opened the frames on 25,28,30. they were almost a whiteout, as soon as I started each frame they all looked fine. the weather was cloudy no bright sun. I was starting and shutting off the car during those bad frames and I had turned on the wipers at that time.
 
I'd try getting a hold of another card to test. Could be a dodgy card, hopefully not a bad camera.
