Same question. SD or SDHC? Please confirm.

To my knowledge, the 2GD cards are NOT SDHC. I think the "HC" means high capacity and SDHC cards are different than older SD cards. Many olded cameras and other devices won't accept the SDHC cards. A new device might use an older SD card but not the other way around.

2 GB cards are SD cards. SDHC are higher capacity. My Nikon D50 (older camera) uses 2 GB cards, nothing larger. 2 GB cards should work on older cameras like mine.

SD - unfortunately i have an older camera that cannot use SDHC and I found these.

This particular item is SD only. I purchased this memory because my camera can not address anything more than 2gb. My next camera I'll pay more attention to what size memory the camera can address. It's nice to be able to put in larger memory sizes especially on vacations and special event and that's where the SDHC would come in handy.

What I purchased was SD only. My wildlife camera won't read the HC cards. These worked great!

It doesn't use SD. HUGE drawback. Sony set it up to use ONLY their proprietary memory storage chip - not included, but absolutely mandatory. They can only be purchased from Sony, so you may need to sell an internal organ in order to buy one of insufficient size. Idiotic, transparent, money-grubbing move on Sony's part.

Any Class 10 SD Card will work.You can use SD, SDHC, SDXC. I would stick with a name brand since you will probably be using this for paid gigs and reliability is more important than price.

I had the same question at the same time! Just found the answer here: http://www.usa.canon.com/consumer/controller?act=ModelInfoAct&fcategoryid=145&modelid=18183#SupportDetailAct and search for "largest" - it is the first answer in the list that comes up. For SDHC, it says: Secure Digital High Capacity currently supports capacities up to 32 GB.

I don't know if any SD card is so much better than another, but any name brand SD HC card works. I happen to like SanDisk myself. I use an 8gb currently but I know up to 64gb are available. To give you an idea of time, at 1080P (HD) video setting, I use approx 100mb per minute of filming, so 1gb is ~ten minutes: 8gb card should get about 70+ minutes (as an 8 gb card formatted is around 7.3gb usable)

32pro micro sdhc from samsung is just as fast as the built-in card. I got the 64pro and can't tell the difference between the built-in or the 64pro.

Very informative, Matthijs. I was wondering why the card from my new camera was not getting recognized. Old was SD New was SDHC. My version is 20-90-00136. Guess I will go to Sandisk to see if I can update the firmware. EDIT: Well, I just checked. Looks like I am SOL! I guess a new card reader is in the cards.

Incredibly helpful advice about SD cards for the S90, J. Robertson. Yours is the best advice on the subject I've seen anywhere (and that includes dpreview forums). Consider yourself uprated.

Any SDHC 16GB card should be good. I usually get Class 10 cards (as they're usually faster than Class 4/6, but not always). As with any product, read the reviews before deciding to buy it. Note that higher-capacity cards tend to be less reliable than the low-capacity ones, so you might be better off buying two 16GB cards instead of one 32GB one. Back up your files often!

After some research and using magnifying glass I saw a C4 sign on it. Please take into account that card is SDHC. As far as I know HC is an enhancement in speed.

Apparently not. The actual device information sheet is shown at http://www.ureach-inc.com/Porducts-Flash-sd300.html, and it only says SDHC. I spoke to the company before buying mine, and they were very helpful. It might be worth a call to see if this is a limitation of the data sheet, rather than the product. I use mine for backing up photos taken in the field, using 64GB SDHC, and it's a very nice product, and very light as well.

Just make sure you use a card reader that supports SDHC. Any SD card over 2GB will likely be SDHC and need a reader device that supports it.

Well I suppose Canon could be lying or the two techs at two different times were misinformed about the MPEG2. Since the camera hasn't been released yet, how do you know that the files are .mod? Also some sites (not Amazon) are claiming this is an HD camera. It's not, it's SD.

I've found that ALL "SD" cards will work. SD is a standard for the card size and performance. Even though all SD cards are the same size and will fit and function in any device with an SD reader, the performance can vary. I use the medium to high grade (fast) ones for the best performance. If you are going to shoot HD video you really should use the higher grade SD's as they are faster and will give you a higher quality final image. Research it some more by "Googleing" SD standards to learn more about SD standards of performance. You can usually find the higher grade ones on sale somewhere, just make sure the speed is adequate for your needs. Good luck!

Hi.I hope this helps. I had the same question as you did. On occassions I use the standard SD cards, but when traveling I like to use the Extreme SDHC cards. I called tech support and they told me the following.The first ones out on the market only could read Standard SD cards. The new ones being sold accepts SDHC cards. Good new if you have an older model. Sandisk offers a firmware update at their site. So you are covered.I hope this helped.
