How large of a CF card can a G3 take

First post guys after a year of lurking. Want to buy a 1GB card for my G3 has anyone had problems with their camera taking this size card as I believe the manual stops at 512
Thanks

I used a 1gb card for months with no problems.

Its quite possible there wasn't a 1GB card available when the G3 manual was printed.....or at least one in mass production.

I've also used a 1GB card for months without a problem.

G3 can handle the FAT32 format in Compact Flash, and I think the upper limit of those is 2^32 of 512 byte sectors or 2,199,023,255,552 bytes = 2 Terabytes = 2000 Gigabytes.

You won't have to worry about capacity for a while. :P

Your G3 should be able to use almost all of the larger format CF cards that will come up in the next 20 years so.

Thanks everyone for the info. This forum is something.

I got my G2 bundled with a 1gig IBM microdrive 'Microdrive edition' long before the G3 was even unveiled.

Best regards,
Andy

Memory card information

They are coming with cards that have more and more space so fast the manuals can be outdated quickly!
