Memory Card Limit: I read somewhere that some older DSLR cameras have upper limits for memory card space - is that the case here?

I'm not sure about the memory limits, but I wouldn't shoot with a card much larger than 8 gigs anyway. Even a 4-gig card can hold plenty of pictures, but memory cards fail, become corrupted, and sometimes they may even break. I say you're better off getting several smaller memory cards, simply because the thought of losing all those pictures on a full (or nearly full) 32-gig or 16-gig card sounds like a nightmare. Additionally, having less space will force you to back up your pictures. It may even encourage you to delete the pictures you know came out obviously bad while you're in the field, which can help you conserve space. I suggest picking up a portable hard drive for when you need to travel and back up your pictures on the fly. They make models that fit into your pocket, and they will automatically copy the pictures you've taken directly from your memory cards. You don't need a computer or laptop to use them, and they can hold 200 gigs or more. Hope this helps!

We have one. If a previously working card is rejected the camera may have an electronic failure or the card itself may have failed. Try formatting it in a laptop/desktop with an appropriate card slot. Also, we found that the camera can handle up to 2GB SD cards but not higher. kodak.com/go/z740accessories says "Z610, Z650, Z700, Z710, Z730, Z740, Z760, Z7590: SD memory cards up to 2 GB." We got a 5-pack from Overstock.com. Stores now concentrate on the (much) larger ones for newer devices.

you can allocate how much space is available for event, motion detection and normal recording in the settings. I had an 8gb card which got filled completely, I just installed a 32gb a month ago and there is still room available. I will continue to monitor if the camera can use all of it.

The manufacturer recommends that you use between 64 and 128MB which leads me to believe that this camera is pretty old. Newer equipment uses SD disks in the gigabyte range. The down side is that SD disks in the megabyte range are getting harder and harder to find. However, I've read about someone who shot video using up to 99GB on the SD450. He had difficulty getting his computer to recognize the disk. More than likely it's because the computer can't read or format a disk that exceeds the operational requirements of the SD450. In your case, since 2GB SD disks are relatively cheap these days, I suggest that you try it. If your computer lets you format the disk you should be able to upload your pictures. Just bare in mind that if you go higher than 2GB, you may run into problems uploading your pictures.

Hi, Patricia. That camera, being older technology, can only handle a 1G SD card, maximum. I went through the same thing when I first got mine. You can get a 1G card online, but they are hard to find in stores. That said, it is a fairly nice camera, and I use mine often. Best of luck. Bruce

I have used an 8 GB SD card with no problems. I haven't used the camera much in a long time, so I can't say if it can accept larger cards.

I use device for my 4GB sdcard and dx card on my older camera and works great on both cards. Unfortunately I can't answer question on the higher capacity sdcards as I don't have one. ..sorry.

Always FORMAT new cards first in camera, I have been using the 16GB for quite sometimes now, no problem what's so ever!! Good luck!!

I had to purchase one when I bought the camera. If these are sold with one included they are usually on the lower end of storage so you would probably want to look to upgrade to a higher capacity card.

I purchased my camera about a month ago (Aug. 2012) and it still says 16GB max. I actually had the same question.....to be on the safe side I just put a 16 in but would have preferred a 32GB. db

This camera takes SDHC cards. As far as I know, once you have a camera that recognizes SDHC, the sky's the limit. For older cameras that DO NOY accept SDHC cards (those cards above 2GB), then 2GB is the limit. The reason is the file format on the cards. Up to 2GB used FAT16; above 2GB use FAT32. A few cameras that take CF cards (not SD), even if they are older, can use part of, or all o,f the larger sized CF cards, but there's no guarantee that there won't be an occasional problem with recording of images.

I think most digitals today can handle 32gb plus. Check the users manual for the camera. Class 10 is best for digital cameras.Hope this helped.

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!

Before I purchased this camera, I checked many sites regarding which card to use-Internal memory of only 52MB was not enough for my use-the end result was purchasing a SanDisk 16GB Ultra card. There are 32GB Ultra cards also available. Bottom line: Internal memory is very limiting, and the use of an Ultra card (recommended over a basic SD card) will add peace of mind while shooting "extra" pictures or extended-video. Great camera, by the way!

I've had my Nikon Coolpix AW110 for 1 year now. Internal memory capacity is very limited so I use a 32Gig SD card. So far no problems.

I use a SanDisk 32GB SDHC card. Not sure if there is an upper capacity limit. The manufacturer recommends a class 10 card for the fastest read/write speeds.

I had the same question too, but couldn't find a definitive answer online, so I called Canon to find out for sure. They said the largest SD card that could be used in this camera was the 8GB.
