   This is only speculation but it is possible that it is formatted Fat32    
   if larger than 2GB but that it is done as a Large Floppy and not as    
   partition-able media.  Currently only FAT16 can be accessed when the    
   drive is formatted as large floppy (there have been reports of someone    
   being able to access a FAT32 Large Floppy but I have not known anyone to    
   reproduce the success as yet).  If this is indeed the case, then one    
   possible workaround is to partition the card and format it with DFSee to    
   Fat32 and then see if that helps.  I was successful with one camera to    
   not only do that but to also delete the folder that the camera created    
   to put its photos in and to recreate it as a light table.  Your level of    
   success will be determined by the camera and if it needs anything    
   proprietary as Kris mentioned and if to put that proprietary stuff on    
   requires the camera to do its own format.
