It indicates the Class 10 Up to 60MB/s transfer speeds. But, the card lable indicates 90 MB/s. Does this card try to midlead the users?

Hi, that is interesting and is misleading for sports or nature photographers like myself. I did buy it for the noted mb speed on the label as I need speed on my shoots, and it bothers me that elsewhere it is stated as being slower than what I am being lead to believe, and need. I don't think though that that would restrict video taping as I also use as spares ScanDisk 45MBs cards which were the fastest at one time, but they take video with no issues. One must also take in the frames per second and pixel size of the movie. High speed cards can handle hi def to low definition. The first thing I did was change the movie mode to one of the lowest standard on all cameras that can take videos, and it still didn't work.i also have Lexar cards. They have issues when taking too many pictures such as action shots in sports, but are fine for video and general picture taking. I tested it when I got home and it had no issues videoing, along with the older 45mbs cards and still couldn't figure out why the PNY wouldn't take videos. Thank you. Rob

the card is 16gb and it's the one pictured. not sure of the 'class' of the card however.

I believe it reflects the speed of the card. The higher the class the higher the write speed.

Mine works just fine with a 32 MB. But I tell you, it's better have a lot of 8MB class 10 cards than just one 64 MB card.

The label "Class 10" is meaningless nomenclature nowadays, used to sell sub-par memory cards. You need to check the write-capacity of the card. Lexar indicates the write capacity as 100x, 200x etc, and others indicate it as MB/sec. You need to upgrade your card. I use Lexar 400x and San Disk 45mb/sec; they're a little pricier but the write capacity is instantaneous. If better cards are not in the budget, reduce your pixel count for your pics. A high speed card will even shorten the time it takes the camera to process multi-shot pictures such as those produced by HDR back light correction or superior auto..

I got a 16GB Class 6 Sandisk card before our vacation to Europe. On a bicycle ride around a lake the camera would stop midstream in a video shoot and said something like "the data stream is too fast for the card". I was shooting in the highest HD mode. It happened several times so high speed action (a lot of data) is too fast for a Class 6. Buy a faster card. I wish I had.

yeah it does. a class 10 is supposedly the best and higher quality sd card. But i dont use a class ten. i just have a generic one. And others cant tell the difference between them, either.

It means the fastest class- however, it says that it has a 20mb/s write speed in DSLRs and 60mb/s transfer speed in computers The average small SD card that comes in a camera bundle usually does at least 30mb/s, but thats irrelevant if you shoot portraits or other non rapid fire photos

OK, your post really makes me confused. I guess I have to investigate further. But I suppose that would explain why the transfer speeds are so close.The product detail on one of the pages did say 2 MB so I think that's where the confusion came from.

Try the card in a few other computers, or different brands to figure out if the problem lies in the card itself. BTW, theoretical top speeds are never achieved in practice. See Wikipedia article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_device_bit_rates#mediaviewer/File:Speeds_of_common_interfaces.svg

Hello Austin: Usually the capacity indicated in GB (there are almost no MB and still not go to the market to come to a TB or exceeded); "Class" instead what it does is indicate the data transfer speed in megabytes per second (MB / s), this is because the technology is so demanding, mainly photographic machines. So classes are related as follows: Class 2: 2 MB / s Class 4: 4 MB / s Class 6: 6 MB / s Class 10: 10 MB / s Hope I have clarified its meaning.

I'm going to stand behind class 2. I purchased a class 6 and class 4 from Sandisk and they blast 2gb file transfers over to the cards but this one is well below class 4. Good card and holds files good but definitely slower.

Class 10 is normally faster than class 6. The minimum rating for class 6 is 6Mb/sec, whereas the minimum for class 10 is 10Mb/sec. Sandisk products normally run higher than the minimum required. The faster speeds will allow for faster file transfers.

Well to be honest I do not know, nor have I looked into the exact Transfer Speed. But I do know that It is not slow by any means when transferring your data.

KE,I suspect you are confusing the 'Ultra II' with 'Class 2'. On each Sandisk Ultra II card it says '15MB/S'. So even if in real life you only get half of that speed, it is still much faster than class 2 (which means 2MB/S minimum).

Although I haven't checked the actual transfer speed, it is fast and does support SDHC and SDXC cards.
