Nikon D50
Hi all, Can the Nikon D50 take a 2gb and up SD card? I use a 1gb card at the moment, but it does not say in the instruction book, cheers, Bert

Hi Fishingdobbie,
No idea, but try nikon-euro.com, the official Nikon site, they have a huge Q&A forum.If it's not there then they have the facilities for you to ask the question and get a reply. regards Subzero. |
Hi again Fishingdobbie,
Have a look at nikonians.com Look in their D50 forum there is a recent post no15456 relating to large capacity cards with fast write times causing the camera to slow down?? I did not read it all but it might be useful. Subzero. |
Thanks Subzero will do,Bert
|
Thanks again, the d50 can take up to 2gb, Bert

I havn't got the Nikon I have a Canon but I have found its better to stick to 1gb cards, if you have a failure its unlikely for more than one card to fail at the same time. Another consideration is the time to upload to the computer, I have only filled a 1gb card once and it took nearly half an hour to upload imagine how long with a 2gb.

Incidentally, isn't there software to recover images from a corrupted card? I presume corruption is usually due to a write error on the FAT, given that corruption within an image would not lead to a read failure. Or do the controllers fail? Leif. |

Never, in 6 years have I had a card fail me... tempting fate there :eek: |
Leif I use a high speed card and card reader I have the Sandisk III which is quite fast I also have a 512kb card which I put in camera just while I upload to the PC via the reader but I still find this slow. When I am away I carry a 40gb portable storage drive which you can now get for around £99 which is very useful, they are now very appealing. Two 1gb cards equals 1, 40gb storage device and they hold a heck of a lot of images.
