Reconyx owners SDHC question
Anyone else running the newest Reconyx cams?
What class of SDHC cards are you running?
Reconyx recommends the latest/fastest cards.
I'm looking at class (6) but wondering if anyone is using 4's.
Looking at the Sandisk and Toshiba cards.

I don't know what your talking about, I use an sd 2 and an sdhd4 that I got with a cam I took back.
The cam snaps off pics very fast. I can't imagine needing them any faster. They are almost so fast that if you view them as a slide show it's like watching a video. Any faster and you'll end up with 50 shots of the critter licking it's butt. A couple days and you'll have thousands of pics.
Great cam.

What I'm talking about is that Reconyx recommends at least a class 4 card to do 2shot Rapidfire but if you want more then they recommend class6 or 10.
I bought 2 Toshiba 16gb Class10 cards from Sams.
It's one of the cards that they recommend because it's one they test with.
I contacted them to find out how to get the MOST out of the cam and if it takes spending a little more for a quicker card then I'm going to do it.

All greek to me, I'm not very good with camera stuff, this cam is real easy to use. Mine snaps of a burst of 3, I didn't know there were options. 16gb sounds like it will be more than enough. My brother lives in an area with a lot more game so he put his on feeder mode otherwise he'd be getting thousands in a couple weeks. I wouldn't know what to do with more with just the 2gb card, really is something.

Brother just check his cam and I don't think he has any special card. 2 weeks-4000 pics. He didn't put lithiums in and is still at 88% battery. I don't think his cam started at 100% with just the regular batteries, mine started at 99% with just the lithium. I think the extreme lithium puts it at 100.

My Reconyx paperwork said, NO ALKALIKE batteries or your warranty will be void.
Doesn't matter because Lithiums are far better anyway and I've switch my other cams to them already.
The faster cards allow faster writes to the card during "RapidFire".

Not all their cams. The security cams said no, the 500 is ok but they warn it won't work as well.
