On my recent trip, Day 1,  I pulled out card 1, tried to download the day’s 
images. Nada. Zip. Zero. WTF! Card back into camera, fiddled, eventually saw 
that everything was being recorded to card 2. I found that eventually, once 
card 2 filled up, new images then started recording onto card 1. But, really?

Thanks for confirming that it is not just me!
