Yes
Does the D200 work fine with 16Gb cards? One website says yes, another no!

Having received my very low mileage D200 today i need something bigger than 512mb and 1gb for RAW :lol:

Thanks!
 
I'd rather have 4 4GB than 1 16GB card in case of errors.
 
16 gigs works fine in my S5 Pro, should be fine on the D200 in that case.
 
A quick google shows that some people can use them and others find they can only use up to 8GB although the camera will keep shooting.

It's up to you
 
I take it you don't already have a 16GB card? If not have you seen the prices of 4GB cards? It's more of a hassle to change them, but I shoot RAW and JPG Large/fine and get 120ish shots to each 4GB card....

Plus as has been said above, if something does happen to one card, you have not lost everything.

No i don't already have a 16Gb but at £19.99 delivered they are quite cheap!

I understand what people are saying regarding numerous cards would mean not loosing everything but in 8 years of digital photography it's not happened yet... tempting fate? Maybe! :help:
 
While 4gb are fine as has been said you don't get a lot in RAW mode, even on a 16gb if you shoot RAW +JPEG you only get about 500ish shots, if your worried about the "eggs in one basket" theory you could go for an 8gb or 12gb :shrug:
