CFV-16 and CF cards

[therussgallery]

Hey everyone

I am looking to see if anyone is using a CFV-16 with more than a 4GB card. Is it possible to use an 8 or 16GB card with the CFV-16? I am still waiting for mine to arrive but need to know what cards I should get. I wanted to pickup a couple of Sandisk Extreme 3 16GB cards, are they compatable? The camera store I buy from has a CFV and it always says "card error" when anything over 4GB is put in the card slot. Does the most recent firmware allow new card use? And is the CFV UDMA compatable?

Any info is greatly appreciated

I use ScanDisk Extreme III 16GB, works fine.
Firmware Revision 256.

Remember to format the card before use
(Menu, Storage, Format)

Best regards

Hi All,

I always use 2GB CF cards.
Why put all my eggs in one basket?
