bvaz - when you use a 32g card, does your deck recognize it as such?
Mine gives me th option of 2g or 4g in the formatting screen, but that's it. I can not remember if when I last used the 8g card if it gave the option or recognized it as an 8g.
It does however, allow for the file size of the 8g. I put it a 4g and tried some different settings, then put the 8g, and tried the same settings again. They all came up as twice the recording length. So it does recognize and alot the proper record time for the 8g card.
This weekend I'll try multiple takes of over 1hr. and report back.
Oh, and to answer a question- When I was recording originally, I was using batteries, and there was plenty of battery life left when I shut it down.
