Frequently asked questions

Can a trail camera use a card bigger than 32GB?

Only if the camera supports SDXC. Cards of 64GB and larger are SDXC and use the exFAT file system; many older and budget trail cameras read only SDHC cards up to 32GB and will refuse to format a larger one. The maximum supported size is in the manual. When in doubt, two 32GB cards swapped at each check are the safer buy.

Should I format the SD card in the trail camera?

Yes. Format a card in the camera itself before each deployment. A card formatted on a computer can end up with a file system or cluster size the camera handles badly, which shows up as card errors or corrupted files. Copy your photos off first, since formatting erases everything.
