I use a 4-gig card with this camera and I shoot at the maximum quality jpeg. If memory serves me right, I can usually get 700 - 850 pictures on a full card, though I rarely do so for exactly the reasons I mentioned earlier. Always back up your pictures! Twice, if you can help it!

I get about 1000 max quality jpegs with a 4GB card with an XTi. The camera should be compatible with any current compact flash card. Storing ALL your irreplaceable images on one massive card probably isn't a very good idea due to possible loss so a daily backup method - laptop, portable image storage solution - is highly recommended.

Sounds like a great suggestion, thanks. Do you use a 8G will this camera? Would I be correct in assuming you'd get about 1700 pics at fairly standard settings?

You can use a maximum of 32 GB of memory. They told me to buy a class 10, which has a faster write speed. Be sure the card is seated completely in the slot. I realistically don't think that any SD card would make it say no SD card unless it's more than 32 GB. Based on my experience, I don't believe your problems are going to end there. You will most likely end up returning it. If you do, remember to remove your SD card. Some people forget to do that.

I've used a 32 Gb card with no problems. I see no reason why it can't use cards with more memory than that.

This camera can only use a 1 gigabyte or under SD card. You can find these online for fair prices. Considering the top megapixel count is 4, that will hold you plenty of memories. Good luck with your camera.

You may have gotten the answer but the manual says: 2GB card can hold 380 12M pictures, 650 5M pictures(using the Extended zoom lens capability).

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.

Hi I am not a Nikon user, but here is a link for your cameras with approved cards https://support.nikonusa.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/17636/~/approved-memory-cards---d700it says you could use up to 64GB as long you have the latest camera firmware ( I am sure you will find a link on the Nikon site how to check if you have the latest firmware and on how to install the latest firmware.

In case anyone reads this.... I am using this camera with a 64gb Compact Flash card with no problems. (Transcend) I have not tried with a 64gb SDHC card. However, I am using a 32gb SDHC card in at the same time with no problems.

I use a16gb card in this camera. I put in 64 gb card from my canon SLR and the Nikon says I have 9999 photos left. After taking about 10 pictures I still have 9999 images left. It may be a limitation of the display because a 64 gb card would have ~11,000 images.

It would be best to check your owners manual to see the type of memory cards that are supported on the camera. Or even Nikon's website if in the case the camera had its software updated, it may support more range of memory cards now.

I've been able to use a 64 gb micro sd in the camera, but there are some issues that have cropped up. One, you can't format the card in the camera. Which means that updating the cameras firmware is iffy. But, if you update the firmware with another card, no problem. Second, and perhaps more troubling, the time and date that the file is recorded is always wrong. If this is important to you, don't use the 64 gb card. With the 32 gb or smaller, this issue disappears. Contour simply says the ROAM wasn't designed for anything larger than a 32 gb card anyway, so I'm surprised it worked it all with the bigger one.

I think the best way to find out is by calling Canon to see if your camera will accept an SD card of this capacity. Some older cameras will only accept up to a certain number of GB's for the camera. I have an older camera from 2008 that will only accept up to 2GB.

Hi Yes Angry Mom you can use more than 2GB especially with 5mp digitals cameras. but with 6mp and above you can use only 2GB SD memory.

The largest I have ever used is an 8gb in my D300. I do not know if a 16 or 32 may be used.

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.

That's a good question man. I haven't purchased a memory card yet for the reason you just asked. Im pretty certain I'm nearing my limit though.

Afraid I don't have the expertise to answer your camera questions as I only know about the SX500, however for information on how many HD pics you can fit on a 16 DB card, you can check here: http://kb.sandisk.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/69/~/number-of-pictures-that-can-be-stored-on-a-memory-device
