Each time I download photos onto my computer the iMac asks: “Delete photos from card after downloading?”
I never do, and my SDXC card currently contains about 3500 images, going back to when I bought the Canon G9X, mark 1, 4 yrs ago.
I do have my photos backed up onto iDrive, Time Capsule, and another external hard disk.
What is the downside to using a card that is partially full?
Does a partially filled card write new images slower than a blank card?
Suggestions?
After you download your images to your computer, put the card back into the camera and delete the files with the camera. I've been doing this for the past 10 years, all the time and then about once a month, I reformat the card too.
