New K-7 firmware allowing SDXC!!!

sjwaldron · 01-13-2011, 04:33 PM

What's the point in complaining that they improved the firmware of now second generation set of DSLRs? I'm glad they added the support and as someone else said... SDHC will be fazed out like they did with standard cards (they updated the *ist DS to use SDHC thankfully when I owned it). I can also see a future use for a larger card with video, not so much RAW files as I prefer 8GB cards for the K-7 so I avoid taking a large number of photos on one card.

I use a 16 GB SDHC and I can already drain my eneloops before I fill up the memory card.

Yawn...

Although I don't really have SDXC card now, but what pentax does for all the "old" machines are still very appriciated. Thanks for the information.
