Sdhc cards

Recently purchased an 8gig SDHC card and decided to run it first within my istDs..Works treat then decided to slip it into my K10D and she no wanna work!!!! Comes up with card error os something to that effect but in a nuthshell the K10D doesnt want to know it..
Any reason why??..
have heard that some of the olde Cameras dont recognise the 8 gig cards but surely if the istDs can recognise it then so should the K10D???..
Cheers

I could be wrong but it needs to be formatted to the K10D

Aye, I think Magnum1 is right enough, get your K10D to format the card (from the camera set up menus).

Let us know how youy get on.

I have used both 4 and 8 Gig SDHC cards in my K10D with no problems.

Just because it cannot "read" it in it's current format does not mean that it cannot format (write operation) and then put it into a format that is then readable...

have you updated the firmware? I believe you need to do that to be able to use SDHC cards
