  SD Card

  Posted by Sandip Kumar Gupta on February 26, 2025 at 8:03 pm

  Does frequently removing the SD card from the camera for backups cause damage? Would it be better to use a USB cable to back up directly to a laptop without removing the SD card?

  I have been removing the card and download photos on to my computer for the past 15 years. I have had no issues with camera or card. It is recommended to format the card in the camera after photos have been copied on to computer ( Do not format the card in computer )
