Question on memory cards
chasrich wrote: I recently bought a eBay 32GB SD card - mostly for archiving when I travel. It came in not working and the buyer has disappeared. I have the dispute posted and am waiting for a reply from the seller. I'm sure eBay will refund the money but what a hassle. I put in a new rule - Don't buy from someone based on price alone - look at the reputation as well.
I have 4 8GB cards which seem to be meeting my needs at the moment. The key to speed is the class rating. A class 10 card is the best available at this time.
and advice. Shoot, learn and share. It will make you a better photographer.

I would say a moderate speed card would be fine for it. Probably a 300X max, and 8 GB are very cheap now. Look for Lexar or Sandisk.

Which is what I have.
Now, since MLK ask me what camera I have, are you going to answer my question or not. Because I'm curious as to what kind of camera I have, has anything to do with my question on memory cards.
