Folks have reported reasonably good success with most SDHC (and SDXC?) cards, though I believe there are a few brands/models out there that have been problematic. Will try keep a list here of brands/models that users have had success/difficulties with:

...

  • Stick to big-brands (SanDisk / Kingston / Verbatim)

  • SDHCis recommended

    • WARNING: some SDXC cards work, others don’t

    • WARNING#2: don’t use plain SD / SDSC card, they don’t work

  • Aim for a minimum of 4GB and a maximum of 32GB
