bingreed Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 Enjoyed a cold & breezy flight before sundown last night, and as usual captured the whole event on my helmet-mounted GoPro Hero2. Only I didn't, because upon landing I discovered a "SD Full" message on the display. Reviewing the footage this morning I discover the camera stopped filming after 10 minutes... grrrrrrrrrrr The thing is, the card is still half empty. Which raises the question, what is the maximum SD card size a GoPro Hero2 can utilise??? FYI the card I was using is 8gb. There was already some content on there, but it has stopped recording when the total card content got to 4gb. Why can't my camera utilise the full 8gb??? Any advice would be much appreciated...

martinpa Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 I use a 32Gb card and can use all of it. Perhaps you have a faulty card. The first card I had was a cheap one and I had all sorts of problems with it. Now I have a good quality card, i never have any issues.

carlf Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 .. I had something similar with my very old GoPro - I reformatted the card and it showed some corrupt areas. I could use the rest of the card without a problem, but ended up doing the same as martinpa - chucked it away and got a better card Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richwill15 Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 Worth checking you have latest firmware for your camera. Might also be worthwhile reformatting the card. Sometimes the camera will film in segments. Mine seems to do 30 min ones. I have a 32GB card. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
