I expect to buy next Tuesday a Canon 60D body which can use SD, SDHC andSDXC recording media. SDXC cards are considerably more expensive than the other two, in part I suppose because they use the Microsoft exFAT file system; so royalties must be paid.Besides the cost, I am concerned whether SDXC cards can be read by Lenny and successors on my PC and Lenovo laptop. Apparently a special driveris needed to do so. In view of the foregoing I wonder whether I am better using the SDHC cards instead, because their unit cost ($ per mB) are lower than the SDXC unit cost, and because they do not use a proprietary file system still with patent protection. Has anyone had any experience with SDHC and SDXC cards in digital cameras to share? Ken Heard
Haven't tried SDXC personally. However.For the time being, SDHC seems to be your best bet; the cards have higher speeds/capacities than SD, while being cheaper and more backward-compatible than SDXC (remember, you may want to watch your photos in a set-top DVD player, or a friend's netbook some day). Three years from now, any card you buy will be dead anyway (if used intensely enough) so you'll get the chance to try SDXC if you really want. That said, however, Microsoft is not really a player in the photographic industry. I'd never buy a BMW cellphone or a Nokia SUV either, no matter how big BMW and Nokia may be in their respective fields.
