Q: RAW-photos get corrupted in the library and when exported

Hello,

 

I recently did a quite big import of RAW-photos with my new camera (Canon G7X mkII), it all seemed fine, until I looked through the photos, then quite a few images are corrupted, but if I edit them, they look fine. Also some photos that looks fine, does get corrupted, when I export them. See for example the attached photo which looks really strange in the bottom. Any ideas what could be the problem and how to solve it? The strange thing is if I choose a smaller export size it works fine with the same photo...

 

Thanks in advance!

    Have you tried, if reimporting one of the problematic photos from the card will fix the photo, or did you already erase the card?

    Are the photos fine, if you export them with "File > Export > Export unmodified original" and open them in the software, that came with your Canon Camera?

    Thanks for your help, I did some more tests after I posted this question. And the conversion to JPG-process must have corrupted some of the JPGs. What I did was to do some minor change (cropped them a few pixels) in the photos now and the JPG was reloaded and it all seem fine!
