Shot a bunch of files that were corrupted on the card. LR will not import them, is there anyway to modify them so that LR likes them? Peter
-
How were you importing them? Via a card reader, or directly from the camera?
-
If the files were truly corrupted on the card, the first step would be to try using a data rescue utility for re-instating the integrity of the files, then try importing them again into LR. Sandisk has such utilities. I am sure there must be others.

Try to use another card reader or directly from the camera.
If that fails then try PhotoRescue (website (http://www.datarescue.com/photorescue/)). A demo version is available here: Demo download (http://www.datarescue.com/photorescue/download.htm).

Tried 2 different card readers, fially downloaded them with Image capture. A lot of the files are partly obscured with loloured noise, many are blank. Looking back, I had some evidence that something was wrong, LR imported previous files that had minor problems obviously not bad enough to reject.

I hope this is a card problem, not camera.

Happy to report that the software offered by Sandisc, Image Rescue was able to rescue all but two files. One of the symptoms I ignored, my D3x did not give me a preview right after taking the photo. Now I know one more thing to watch out for. Peter
