I've never been able to get an SDHC card to work with this thing for recording video even though I've followed the specs and brands listed in the manual. Can anyone help?

I haven't used the extra SDXC card in a while, but I have used a 32 gb SDHC and my usualy 64 gb SDXC without any problems in the past. If I remember correctly I had to go through the menu and make sure to format the cards before using them. Also, make sure you download the latest firmware from the Canon website it fixes problems with SDXC and a few other issues. I just got a 128 gb SDXC for a long trip I'll be taking and don't anticipate any problems. All my cards are Class 10 and my SDXC cards are both PNY

Hi! I actually never run out on build in 32gb. Photo works for sd. I was able to copy video from main drive to a card... I didn't tried to film on sd card. If I will try, I will consider to get some fastest card possible, because regular cards can be not able to process so much data. But I really like that camera!

K., I am sorry, we have used the SD card to dump still shots onto instead of taking up the limited space... we have not used it for video. Typically we shoot our segments, put them to an editing program within a week and clear the memory to optimize its limited space. Sorry I could not be of more help. You may consider going to Canon's help site to see if they have a resolution.

I'm using a 32gb microsd (tf) card, to be honest it is very hard to tell because it's a blackbox. When it "fills up" it continuously records, overwriting the earlier videos, so I just have it recording for the last few months without any issues.

It should work in it, but for video, you may want a larger capacity GB! I would check your manual and see how big of a GB it will record on, and use the biggest! You wouldn't want to have to miss anything by not having enough memory to record it!

I have not seen that error code before. I am currently using a standard 1GB SD card (not a SDHC). This camera does support SDHC class 4. Have you tried using a different SD or SDHC card?

Officially they say it only supports SDHC (so 32gb max) but people are reporting using 64gb SDXC cards with the W510 with no problem so... When I did tech support for DEC years ago I used to say "when reality conflicts with the documentation, believe reality"!

Hi! The SDHC card is too big. The camera doesn't read the compression. The camera takes SD plain cards, up to 2GB, not HC. Hope this helps. :)

I'm having the same problem using a Sandisk 64GB, 30MB/s SDHC card. Packaging says it can handle "up to 64GB SDHC card". Yeah? Which one? Guess we'll have to run it by the manufacturer...good luck.

I have the same camera, but did not purchase that card. I purchased 8GB Sandisk MicroSDHC Memory Card and it has been working well. My memory card is very small and needs an adapter with it to put it into the kiosk.

SDHC works like a champ, I believe it can handle up to a 16Gb card...Fred Dagg seems to have provided the thorough answer below.

I am using a PNY 4 GB SDHC card. They are very inexpensive. About $5 to $10.

I have the same question.I ordered a 2 GB card and don't know if it acutally will work with this camera.

I use a 16 GB SDHC card and it has worked perfectly. I cannot say enough good things about this camera, very happy with it!

I have used standard cards without a problem, the camera will format the card. If you plan to capture video, be sure to get a card that is rated for that function. There is a SD card class rating you can read about, as I recall it is suggested using at least a 10 for video.

We bought an 8gb SDHC to go with this camera and it works great. Don't know if a bigger one would work any different or not. Hope this helps.

I was able to to record 720p on a 2GB Kingston non SDHC card which was a surprise. It played back fine too. I ened up getting the 16GB Adata for ~$30. So far so good.

I have been using a Sandisk 4GB SDHC (class 2 speed), and a Sandisk 8GB SDHC Extreme III (class 6 speed) with this camera and both seem to work fine. I've noticed that some retailers claim in their "specifications" sections that this camera can only use cards up to 2GB (not SDHC), but I haven't found this to be the case. I'm not sure if I'll actually be able to get the full 4-8GB storage capacity out of my cards, but compatibility hasn't been a problem. Hope this info helps.

I'm using a 32GB card in mine. . I have a 64GB card also but did not use as it was SDXC. I figured it probably wouldn't work and didn't bother trying.
