Has anyone had a problem getting a cf card to fit in a canon 7d camera?

I bought and used this in my 400D (Rebel XTI). Fit perfectly. It's the exact form factor of a CF card, so should fit in any CF slot.

I only used three CF cards whilst I had my 7D. All SanDisk and all fitted. The fit is snug but if the manufacturer is using good design and materials then there should be no problem. I did have an SD converter but stopped using this as the transfer rate was really poor. However, it fitted okay.

I am surprised that Some users report capacity-related issues. I purchased a Transcend SDHC Class 10 32G card that I had to format using the camera build-in menu for a correct initialization. It has been working fine since, save a reformatting from time to time when it is not recognized anymore. I would advise to avoid low capacity cards as the same disk Sectors will be Constantly written over, thus faster degrading the card.

Not all of them, only the pocket sized ones. My 20D and my wife's Rebel XT use CF.

It works great with Canon 5d MKIII as that is the camera and cf card that I use. I have never been able to overun the buffer using this card and shooting at the maximum frames per second. I also have a friend that has a 5dMKIII and the same card and is just as satisfied as I am with this setup.

I had the same question too, but couldn't find a definitive answer online, so I called Canon to find out for sure. They said the largest SD card that could be used in this camera was the 8GB.

Try doing a full format of the card. I have used this card on both Canon and Nikon, several models and never had an issue. Might want to contact Nikon if a full format of the card does not work. There is no firmware on the card that should need to be updated.

I do have problem with this card when using USB 3.0 card reader with my CF cards, regardless Sandisk, Lexar, or Komputer Bay, it keep eject and mount as a loop. I am getting very frustrated now with this card.

Will this SD card work in an old Canon Powershot A60? Manual says to use a CF card.

I can't speak for the 5D but I run the 32GB version in two 7Ds without any issues. The card keeps up with the camera and the buffer never fills under continuous shooting. I do recommend formatting the card in the camera before each use if you are using the card in multiple cameras. I have not updated the firmware yet in one camera and it will cause problems switching back and forth.

From what I have read thus far, the Canon 7D will only take in Type I SD cards. The SD adapter we see here is a Type II hence it would not fit a Canon 7D Mark II as I just found out, the hard way.

NO! According to the Canon 6D website (http://shop.usa.canon.com/shop/en/catalog/cameras/eos-cameras/eos-6d-body), the camera uses Recording Media: SD card, SDHC card, SDXC memory card, NOT CF.

Look at your camera manual. CF memory card is much larger then SD memory card. If your camera manual indicates CF card for memory, you can get this CompactFlash memory. If your camera manual asks for SD type memory card, this CF card will not fit.

I recently purchased the transcend PCMCIA card reader to used in a Honda model that requires that kind of a card holder. It was the least expensive one out there and I know it can read the CF card so I purchased it. NOt many cameras now a day use a CF card, cf card reader. My old Nikon and Canon cameras use a cf card and I have purchased the biggest capacity that I could afford after reading if there was any limitation(s) in the specs of the cameras. There was none so I purchased 4 gig and 8 gig CF card for my cameras. You have to look at the specs of the electronic that you are using to see the specific card that must be used and then wait for the sale. dan I recently purchased the transcend PCMCIA card reader to used in a Honda model that requires that kind of a card holder.

I tried my Eye-Fi card in my 20D and it does not work. I then looked inside the 20D and can see that the CF card bay is completely enclosed in metal. Further examination of my SD/SDHC CF to SD card adapter shows it to be composed of two metal sheets set in a plastic frame. The camera works with the memory as configured but does not establish a connection to my WiFi network access point which is 10 feet away from my camera/desk area. The Eye-Fi card works just fine in my little plastic "toy" camera.My conclusion is that there is too much shielding inside my Canon 20D for the use of an Eye-Fi card.

Thanks for the reply. We actually ended up returning the camera to FP after calling the help center and trying different cards. The card reader must have been broken, because the replacement camera they sent us, read all the cards we had tried in the old one... FP did send the new camera with no problem.

This adapter allows you to use an SD card in a camera that uses CF Type 2 cards. I've been using it for a while with no problems. You need to know what card your camera uses to start with.
