No Data on SD Card?

[bonefish]

After inserting a used SD card into the camera and attempting to view the footage, the words "NO DATA" appear on the screen. There is only 1 minute left on the card, so I know the footage is on there! I rolled another 10 second clip just to see if the card was still working, and now that is the only clip that shows up when I view on the Mac or in the camera. Anyone have any ideas how this can be remedied? Thanks.

Try clip restorer from panasonics epass website.

Did you change the speed you were shooting at? i.e. 1080/720 or 24p/30p/60p? The camera only plays the current clips, but the rest are still there for you to grab on the computer.

He did say that he can no longer see any other clips on the mac.

I may have changed the speeds, but I still can't see the clips when I go to log and transfer in FCP.

does the clipl restorer work? what card were u using ?

The card is Panasonic SDHC 16GB. To tell you the truth I don't know where to find the restorer or how to use!

Go to https://eww.pavc.panasonic.co.jp/pro-av/support/desk/e/download.htm

(where you registered you camera), login. It should be in the "library".

I find the navigating the site a tad confusing but it is there for sure.

The restorer is saying there is no need to restore. There is 15GB being used on the card, so the missing footage has to be on there...I just can't get to it.

I had my first real card failure over the weekend. The restorer didn't work for me either. However I found the MTS file and converted them manually. It's a PITA but at least it's not a chewed tape
