I'm about to buy a new camera, Sony Cyber-shot DSC-HX9V which uses SD, SDHC, SDXC, & Sony's Memory stick cards. I need a new memory card since my old camera used CompactFlash. I had sorta thought that I would get a 16GB Class 10 SDHC card. However, I don't know if this is the optimum size & type. How much room does an 1080p/60p HD video occupy on a per minute basis?
Which SDHC card brands are better or are they all pretty much the same as long as they are Class 10?
ABT Electronics has the Transcend TS16GSDHC10 for $23.70. The "same" Sony card SF-16NX/TQ is $39.95. Any reason to justify buying the higher priced Sony card?
There is also the Transcend TS32GSDHC10, a 32GB Class 10 card for $45.55. Of course, the Sony SF-32NX/TQ is the "same" card but higher at $69.
Or, should I get an SDXC card? A Transcend 64GB card is ~ $91. A Lexar 128GB card is ~ $179.
I don't think that I would want Sony's Memory Stick as they are proprietary & couldn't be used in as many other devices.
Thanks.
