Card error camera freezes

[Rufo]

Hello everyone,

I have a Fuji XT4 and yesterday I had the first issue since I got the camera. I was filming 4k with two Lexar Professional 128gb 1667x cards in the slots. 

I had the camera on but I was not filming and suddenly I read: Card 2 error. Then the camera stopped responding, didn't turn on nor off. I was using official fuji battery (which was almost fully drained) and I put another battery this time a Patona but the camera did not turn on. Then I changed both cards with new ones (same Lexars) and the camera started to work again. I noticed that I forgot to format the card in the 2nd slot before using, so it had a bit of old footage on. I hope the footage is not corrupted. I did not update the firmware yet, so I still have the 1.40 version.

Did anyone have the same issue and know how to avoid in the future? I really do not want this to happen again while working.  

Thanks a lot.

I've had problems with the same Lexar SD card and having checked on the Fujifilm website it is not listed as compatible. https://fujifilm-x.com/en-ie/support/compatibility/cameras/x-t4/

I have ordered compatible sd cards and hopefully that will work.
