Re: Do SDHC cards really work?

[Marek Bilski] "I will be slowly releasing information to the public through here if anyone is interested. "

I'm sure most here are interested.

[Marek Bilski] "We've done a lot of testing on Silicone Power 32GB and it appears to work very well, but even they keep changing their firmware, but it works and the sample card I have works very well, but I can't guarantee the stock in the shop will be the same unfortunately. "

This seems to be generally the case with some cards. Interesting that in some cases things move "backward." For example my Sandisk 32 GB Ultra II Class 2 (Yup, Class 2) are rock solid but others have reported the newer Class 4 are a no go.

[Marek Bilski] "In regards to ATP ProMax, we first started testing on our older cards in April, and the 16GB works fantastically to the point that one of our customers took it to the Himalayans and filmed in minus zero temperatures and got great footage with no issues. That's the reason we then started to develop the MxM card with it so it could work with 32GB as the old chipset was not very stable back then but 32GB now with the new MxM card is equally reliable as I've never lost any footage on ATP ProMax, nor have my customers."

Good to hear. ATP ProMax have ben hard to come buy and few of the well known stores sell them. I wish ATP ProMax cards were better distributed.

It's good to hear you're paying attention to detail and continue testing SDHC cards because as your own report verifies, they do change over time.

Please do keep us informed. SDHC (and MxM) is a fairly hot topic around these parts. Thanks for dropping in and do "chat up" findings and developments as they happen.
