You canon camera may not be using the external memory card but the internal storage. Remember that you can choose between internal storage or external memory for the automatic saving of your captured images. Please set the saving feature of your camera into your external device. You can have to read the manual on how you can set this.

If you have more questions, please don't hesitate to ask here at HelpOwl. Experts here are always willing to answer your questions to the best of our knowledge and expertise.
