is 60X speed fast enough for 6MP digital camera?

Edit: camera is Canon SD630.

pm6163 said:is 60X speed fast enough for 6MP digital camera?I think it depends on the camera. I've got a 7.1MP Canon and a really crappy US Modular SD card, and I don't experience any lag at all when taking pictures. Perhaps on a pro level camera like the Rebels or D40, D50, etc., but I'm guessing the 60x will only be realized when transfering from the card to the PC or vise versa.

The spec on the webpage shows that only read speed is 60x:

Read Speed: 10 MB/s
Write Speed: 2 MB/s

Depend on what you do most with the camera, just taking pictures will be ok with this, but I would suggest you get something with at least 7~8MB/s write speed if you intend on taking quick sequential shots or recording movies. FWIW, I had an SD300 and with a slow card and it would stop recording movie after 1 minute, but no problem after I switch to a faster card (kingston elite pro).

Do you think this card can be used for Readyboost? My notebook has a flash media slot and I am considering using it to speed up the system.

Based on my experience, I suggest you guys buy from online, last time I went into the store and waited 30 minutes for the guy just print out an order form, I gave up, because there would be another 30 minutes to go through the checkout line. Didn't count the driving time and the gas!

Depends on which SanDisk 2GB you're talking about of course.

The funny thing is SanDisk makes a line called Ultra II, which @ 1 time was their fastest... so that makes this post (OP's not yours) a little confusing!!

Also, somebody can correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought sheer size of card might also affect performance... so 2GB sounds great but for some uses is overkill. My Canon SD300 has lots of room & good speed w/ just a 512MB Ultra II (though I don't show movies). Again I'm not positive if all else equal a 512MB version of the same line of card is preferable to a 2GB.

Ha! The timing on this is impeccable. I'm going to pair this with my $8 cheapo MP3 player from kaidomain. Voila, 2 GB MP3 player for $13. Can't beat that with a stick.

Showed free for me yesterday but today it is $6.32 to SE VA.

I could load it in the cart yesterday but every time I tried checking out it 'caused a server error.' Since I didn't really need it, I didn't go to the trouble of calling customer service...

Bill.
