Quote from: traildad on 23 / August / 2009, 03:53:32From your post I am gathering that there is no loss in write speed for the camera etc. when using the Fat16 format. I got the SDHC Ultra to have a fast card and I didn't want to lose speed unintentionally.I haven't benchmarked this, but I wouldn't worry. If you want to be sure, you can try it of course. I regularly use 3 cards: 1 GiB Sandisk Ultra II and 4 GiB and 16 GiB Transcend Class 6 SDHC cards. The largest is of course a dual partition FAT16/FAT32 setup, others are FAT16.I mostly use the 16 GiB card for timelapses only because appears to perform a bit slower than the others even though it benchmarks (in CHDK debug menu benchmark, that is) similarly to the 4 GiB one. Partially this is because the camera works faster when there aren't many photos on the card (put a 16 GiB card full of photos and it takes literally ages to boot to play mode), but filesystem size could affect speed too (smaller card handling faster).

Might want to add a "new new dryos" udumper to cardtricks, see http://chdk.setepontos.com/index.php/topic,3994.msg38483.html#msg38483
Does anyone have a bin file for the july 08 firmware? I can't get the posted version to work and I think its because I have the july 08 firmware even though it is version 1.00b.
.... as FAT32 (partition type 0xb). I set it bootable with card tricks
