How to upgrade for high capacity SD cards for M8 or which high capacity cards will do

It again happened - I bought a 4gig SD card just to find out that the M8 does not support the card. There seems to be only few - if any cards which are supported. So far the limit is 2gig for readily available cards - a bit small for the shooting I do.

 

Does Leica already work on an firmware upgrade for the M8 supporting higer capacity SD cards or do we have to wait for an MKII model of the M8 as this cn only be fixed by hrdware upgrade?

The Transcend 150x 4 gig card works fine and is available from Amazon.

 

SDHC compatibility is promised in a firmware update.

I agree, the Transcend from Amazon is fine and at a low price.
