does it help increase shutter speed?? Is it true that memory stick also helps the speed of picture being written on it vs on the internal memory?

The "shutter speed" should not be affected by the speed of the secondary memory (your memory stick), it is a function of the device that actually captures the image. The speed of the memory stick affects how quickly a captured image is saved, making the camera available to take another photo. To get a photo of your cat with its eyes open, try lighting the scene better, turn your flash off, and work with other features of your camera, such as a Sports mode. Take notes on what you do to get the photo and you will be able to recreate the camera configuration later. Some cameras have custom modes which will store a set of custom settings.

I have two of the 16 GB 1000 x and they say the write speed is about 95 Mb per sec. I can't prove it but I also have 600 x and I can tell it has a faster write time. I use a Nikon D 700 and so continuous @ 8 fps in RAW. I like them.

This camera will take a burst of pictures if desired. However in just taking single pictures there is hardly any delay. Having a quality SD card helps as the pictures are saved to the card more quickly allowing the camera to be ready again.

The camera does not come with a memory card. The internal memory will handle a certain number of pictures, but not sure of the number. We purchased a SanDisk Extreme Plus 64GB SDXC UHS-1 Flash Memory Card Speed Up To 80MB/s which, depending on the setting, can hold close to 10,000 pictures.

It will increase the storage. It will not increase the speed (that is a.function of the processor). I don't understand what you mean by "what kind.of dose it take...). You may also need to download a file.manger program to access the SD card, go to Google Play and search for "file manager".

Works great with the Sony a6000. If the Canon EOS60D uses an SD card this will work faster and the camera will "write" to the card faster.There is no downside, other than the cost may be higher sd vs sdhc. In my opinion it's worth it. Faster memory card equals faster camera.

I have a tab 2 and the memory card works in that. The number 6 is the card speed, higher numbers work faster and are required for hd video. The number 6 is good for most applications.

I have been using San Disk for years. The Extreme Pro works lightning fast (i.e. 12 FPS) in my Sony A77's. I have never had shutter lag or buffer fill. I wouldn't use any other memory card than San Disk. www.budralstonphotography.com

Unfortunately, it does not come with a memory card. In order to take pictures, you will need to purchase one. The camera takes SD, memory stick pro duo etc. I hope this helps.

Yes it does. If I am remembering correctly you are able to take 18 pictures with the internal memory only. I suggest a minimum of 16GB SD card as they can be found fairly cheap on Amazon. If you want a recommendation send another question to me and I can check some different brands. Look at SanDisk and Transcend brands. To address an earlier answer.. Class 10 means the fastest transfer speed from picture taken to download onto card and back for another picture. Amazon also has their own brand but speeds are slower. Depending on what your Son is taking pictures of and flash use is more of a difference than card speed but definitely start with a 16GB card. Good luck Yes it does.

I purchased this one fo a slower machine. It went into a Digital Recorder for my Studio. I also shoot Photography Professionally and I've found that the Faster Class 10 Memory Cards work the best. When shooting photography you want the best CF or SD card you can get. With Photography I also use the larger size memory cards. I hope that helps. If you have any questions in regards to photography I'd be more than happy to answer it if I can.

I've taken a couple thousand pictures with mine since December 07. I think the problem is the image size/resolution setting. If you take every photo like you might want a huge enlargement from it, the process of recording to the card is what takes a long time. I think it's going to be slow, but I'd play around with smaller resolution etc. to find a bearable compromise.@S.K., yes it seems worst if you're using flash and stale batts.

It does indeed,,I love this camera...I have used it alot since i bought it..Still lots to learn.Not sure how many photos you can take in internal memory.

Well after doing some research I noticed what you mentioned. Also, the battery grip for the D700 states that it increases shutter speeds. Oh well. I'm still going to make the purchase closer to christmas because of the extra batter life and the portrait grip. Those two points were enough to sell me on the product. Thanks for your reply!

It has the capacity to take action shots depending on the shutter speed you need. Just be aware the quality of pictures won't be that great. It's nothing more than a glorified point and shoot and my experience with it wasn't that great at all. I was glad when it got stolen, but felt a little sorry for the thief!
