Do you mean the A720? I think the A710 is the old OS.

This isn't the case for the A650. Formatting the card as FAT16 generates
a warning about non-standard cluster sizes, but my 8GB cards work fine
in the camera and in a USB reader. I was even able to recover some files
I erased by accident on one of those cards, so the file system can't be
that odd. Given the file sizes, the bigger cluster size is a non-issue.
