Memory Card? Any suggestions on the best card for this particular camera?

Whatever you get, make sure it's class 6. Anything less will not record the 1080p video that this camera offers! For the money I'd go with Transcend 16 GB Class 6 SDHC Flash Memory Card TS16GSDHC6E . 16GB will record about 3 hours of 1080p footage, and around 3,000 10mp pictures.

Right now, Amazon is offering a free Kingston 2GB Secure Digital Memory Card with the purchase of this camera - is that fast enough, or would you recommend something faster/better?

i bought the Kingston 16 GB Class 4 MicroSDHC Flash Card with SD Adapter SDC4/16GB and have it in my Camera and it works perfectly. i have my camera set to HD mode and it gives me almost 3 hours of recording time.

I use two Sandisk SDHC class 10 cards, a 32 GB and a 16 GB. I can easily shoot a short film (30 min or less) at 1080p with no need to clear either card.

I have a high speed hd card. But if you dont mind lower quality videos you can use any sd card. Mine was under 20 I believe and holds a ridiculous amount of pictures.

The particular camera I bough didn't come with a memory card but you can get them on Amazon for really reasonable price. I think I use a 16 or 32 GB so I never have to worry about having a full card, especially b/c the camera shoots video.

I think it is rare to find any camera these days that comes with a memory card. This camera does not take any "special" memory card, so whatever you get will work. I hope this helps.

The camera does its own formatting - it's part of the setup procedure which you go through, 'format, execute'. I found that using a 32-GB memory card caused a lot of trouble, and fixed that problem by using an 8-GB card instead. Mine are SanDisk SDHC cards, class 4, but I think any ordinary SD card would work well. But I only do still photos, and perhaps a faster card than class 4 would be needed for videos.

Hi, you can use any other brand of memory card, as long as it will not exceed to 64GB. (max memory card that has been tested to work on this camera is up to 64 GB). -Ely

I have a 16GB card i bought from Amazon in there - i use the SanDisk mini-SD card and i also got the adapter so that i can put it into a card reader and pull out the photos. You can also just pull the photos directly from the camera, of course, too. I love this camera! Definitely buy it! The Live Panorama feature is worth the purchase alone!

I think it's at least 500 - 800, depending on your settings. If you're worried about the capacity why not just get a 4Gb card for the camera? They're going for under $10... I'm still amazed at the quality of the pictures... Video quality is also good. making stills from the video is a pain but much better than I dared hope for...

I have had this marvelous little camera for about 2 years, and I am not tired of saying this camera is a treasure. I use Transcend 16GB Class 10 SDHC Flash Memory Card: it lasts a long time, for a year I have not had to buy a new card. Every weekend I take beautiful pictures with bright colors with my camera and record great videos to post them on YouTube. I'm not sure the memory card you mentioned is right for this camera, that R40 part sounds unfamiliar, but you can buy a regular Transcend, or any other brand 32GB SDHC class 10 memory card for your camera and you'll be on the safe side. It's inexpensive and lasts a loooong time :)

Any micro sd chip will work. I use a 16gb Sony Class 10 for mine, which is overkill by a long shot. 2,4, or 8gb us good for most anything you want, unless you want to run a lot of apps or games. or just photos and music any just mentioned will suffice.

Thanks for the advice. The 16GB card/reader combo deal is what prompted my question! I'm hoping with this card, she can take a lot of photos and some decent video of my soon to be year old grandson. Thanks again for helping a grandma out!

Any will work. SDHC and SDXC. Depending on the amount of video and High Def pictures you will be taking will determine the size of the SD card you purchase. I purchased a 64Gb SDXC card and found that more than enough for my use
