Memory Cards - What do you use?
#9

I notice that most of my cards before where format using my desktop where get to be damaged in the long run. Either get corrupted or suddenly just drop out from detecting it.

The ONLY time you want to format a memory card in your computer, is iff you can't format it in your camera.

And, you want to format your card, rather than just delete the images. It refreshes the file allocation table, which can be corrupted by file deletions.
