SD CARDS (4gb)

Just purchased a 4gb SD card (from e-bay) and found it did not work with my old Cannon Ixus...as it was a new SDHC and it would not work with my Epson RX425!!
However i decided to keep and give it to my daughter who has a new laptop for Uni and she can backup her work on it.
Question is..if i now want to take advantage of the full superfine pictures taken from the old Canon and want to transfer them to the computer via the RX425..What 4gb Card do i get..as the one i bought just had SD Card and it and not SDHC.
By the way the seller on Ebay was very sorry that this had happened and offered a refund....but as it worked on a newer laptop i wasnt fussed, but would not want to make the same mistake again...

A fundamental problem for you here ....
ALL 4GB cards will be SDHC !
The SD format only went up to 2GB, so anything higher is ONLY an SDHC card.0 -
Does this shed any light on the issue?0

Good spot TangleFoot.
If you read it, technically it says that SD can go up to 4GB. However, I do not recall actually seeing a 4GB standard SD card. The maximum size standard SD I have ever seen (and have bought) is a 2G card.0 -
They are available, but extreamly rare,

Search hard enough & you might find a UK supplier, but as with this US supplied one, it would be at a premium price.Next year we'll be millionaires!0
