First time I've run into to this.
I was using SanDisk 128gb cards one was the standard card and the seconsd one was a newer SanDisk 128gb VPG-130 card. Started my day like normal, initialized media, black balance, time code jam with audio. Got rolling on some verite stuff. Was rolling for about 30 minutes and tried to stop recording, but the camera was non-responsive, it continued to show it was recording, but the minutes weren't diminishing on the card. Had to pull the battery to shut it down.
Luckily I wasn't too far from home and it was an HD shoot so I grabbed my mk1 and finished out the day with less elegant highlight roll off. Turns out it was the combo of cards in the camera that was causing the problem.
Canon Knows and has a fix coming next month: http://www.canonrumors.com/canon-pr...ark-ii-pl-malfunction-with-vpg130-cfast-card/
