 I just have the same problem with my xz2p with latest patch. My xz2p is pretty new, only used around 4 months. No problem at all before taking photo today.

I'm experiencing the same problem too. It is pretty annoying.
Also, the workaround provided by the above link, does not work.

Have these SD cards been size verified using H2testW on pc?

That's the first place to check SD cards with unavailable or read issues.

The message of 'SD Card Unavailable' will only flash for a split second when invoke the default camera app using the shutter button.
