Hi, i just upgreat my camera to D90 and waiting for my Nauticam housing.
Deal to new camera with 12mp and i find out my 4gb is not enough for me if i want to shoot video.
I have put in my 8gb sd card but my D90 can't read it

So how many GB to u use? what is the brand ?

many thanks..........

The D90 supports the SDHC spec for the cards, so should support up to 32Gb.

Have you tested the card to see if it works in another device (e.g. a card reader on on the computer)?

Try formatting it first in the computer or in the camera with the latest firmware. I have a couple of cards that on first attempt don't work with a particular body but if I format them in the computer they work fine.

I use 4,8,16 in my D90. Try to format the card on a computer first. Maybe something is wrong with your camera???
