[QUOTE="aroy, post: 295771, member: 16090"] Another new thing learnt. Why you should not use very high capacity SD cards. In my thought process the bigger the card capacity the better. Little did I realise the pit falls of "Too Large" a capacity. I bought a 32GB 45mbps card as I felt that the 4GB class 4 card was too small and too slow. So I am using the 32 GB card. Here are the down sides . When importing the images, once the number of images crosses 200, the listing of directory takes time.
