I have a D800 and I usually use my camera as the card reader, i.e., I attach the camera to the PC via a USB cable to access the files in the card (a SanDisk Ultra 16G SD HC)
But recently I wanted to keep shooting with another card while uploading the shots on the first card to my Windows7 PC via a card reader. It's just a generic SD card reader I got at Radio Shack but it works perfectly fine on other cards.
And with the card from the D800 my PC didn't recognize that anything was there! It was like card reader wasn't even plugged-in. It did make the bonk-BINK sound when I plugged it in and the bink-BONK sound when I unplugged it, but so sign that the PC thought there was an actual storage device there. I had no trouble reading it with the camera.
Is there a trick to reading SD cards that were formatted/written on the D800 using an external card reader?
Thanks in advance.
