Happy New Year, everybody.
I received my new [used] Aptus 22 the day before Xmas, and have been testing it, with some limitations. I have never had a camera which uses CF, so I have taken every shot so far tethered to my old MBP. Bit limiting.
I have ordered some 4GB CF cards from an online supplier, but they won’t get here for another week or so.
So, I borrowed a Silicon Power 200x 4GB card from a friend. The Aptus displays error messages every time I try to format it. Have tried formatting it on my Mac for both FAT 16 and MacOs Extended (assuming though that the format is DOS) but this makes no difference.
I am wondering now if the Aptus simply cannot handle a newer, faster card.
If anyone knows the maximum size and speed of card that will work with the Aptus 22, please respond (may have to cancel the order!).
Thanks, Ian G
