S3 putobject throwing Invalid URI: The format of the URI could not be determined

I'm working on uploading local files to aws s3 in C# .net, and I'm using putObjectRequest to make the request to aws s3, however, I've just received a thrown exception: Invalid URI: The format of the URI could not be determined.. Here is what I'm doing: 

try {
    string testString = @"C:\Path\to\object files\file.jpg";
    PutObjectRequest objReq = new PutObjectRequest
    {
        Key = key,
        ContentType = "JPG",
        BucketName = bucket + "/" + FolderName,
        CannedACL = S3CannedACL.PublicReadWrite,
        FilePath = testString
    };
    PutObjectResponse response = s3Client.PutObject(objReq);
}
catch (Exception ex) 
{
    Console.WriteLine(ex.Message);
}

I carefully checked the BucketName, RegionEndPoint and ServiceURL, they have been set correctly, so I'm thinking the FilePath is not correct. However, after searching the file path format in C#, I think I'm using the correct operator to escape the backslash. Is there any other cause can lead to this exception?

The entire stackTrace is like this:

It turns out to be a very misleading error message. The problem is from AmazonS3Client(accesskey, secretkey, AmazonS3Config config); was not getting the RegionEndpoint when AmazonS3Config was constructed. I changed the S3 client constructor to AmazonS3Client(accesskey, secretkey, RegionEndpoint.USWest2); and it resolved the error for me. I think Amazon itself should return a message of RegionEndpoint of config is null rather than this misleading message Invalid URI: The format of the URI could not be determined that .net will throw, because it can be caused by many other reasons.
