Post by: Brian Hirschfeld on September 19, 2012, 12:43:16 am

Whats the biggest card I can use with my Leica M9 and Leica M9 Monochrom cameras? I am looking to upgrade to newer SD cards and the Extreme Pro's seem to be the best can I only do 32gb or can I go up to 64gb? with what firmware? thanks,

I ran into difficulties with a SanDisk ExtremePro 8GB card.  After about 6 shots the pictures would not "Play" and the message that there was no SD card appeared.

Here is some interesting discussion of SD cards with the M9:  http://www.l-camera-forum.com/leica-forum/leica-m9-sd-card-issues/

Thanks, I have been shooting with an 8GB Extreme Pro in my MM and have not had any problems with it.
