Anyway, the 8GB cards have been plenty large enough so it could be any number of reasons they say the limit is 32GB. It could be they know it will run out of file names. Most pics are named with four digit numbers. So, 9,999 files and it either stops taking pics or starts overwriting the files. I haven't done the math.
The OBVIOUS reason is that the SDHC spec supports a maximum of 32GB. Stick a larger card in and you're likely to have problems when the card starts filling up.
I just thought of something. The video camera doesn't have a format function. I use a old camera that is broken to format it. It doesn't take pics anymore but the display works and it formats fine. Now I can format them all without having to squint. ROFL
Or use mkfs.vfat to reformat it under linux :-) Cheers, Wol
