Switch camera off, remove battery and leave for a couple of minutes, replace battery and try your cards again. If problem still exists then return the camera to Canon for fixing

follow jims advice ,UNLESS you have inadvertently changed something in the menus i.e protect images etc easily done by accident

maybe before following James advice also click to reset the camera to factory settings

Re: Canon 6d fault?

Took battery out etc and now fine , thanks very much Jim ,is this a common thing to happen? MPB were sending a courier out monday to collect the camera better cancel them

These hiccups can happen on odd occasions - however, if it keeps recurring then the camera needs looking at.

Most cameras these days are mini computers ,,just sounds like a glitch to me

Re: Canon 6d fault?

It`s done it again and has been returned to mpb , they have been able to replicate the problem but have sent it off to their repair centre
