Can anyone recommend a 8 GB SDHC card for SD 780 IS? Can someone please recommend a 8 GB SDHC card for SD 780 IS?

I had the same question so I spoke with a Canon rep today. He recommended SanDisk but noted that the sd780is only writes up to 18-19 MB/sec. So it's essentially a waste of money to purchase a card that writes any faster than 20 MB/sec. Check this one out: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0018M256G/ref=cm_cd_asin_lnk However, faster cards are likely to write and read faster through a card reader or on your computer.

I bought a SanDisk Extreme Pro 95MB/s 10 SDHC1 8GB memory card to use with it, but the regular one like you listed is the other type that I use. Either works well, although I like the higher end one for quality. This camera is more expensive, but very excellent.

Hi and thanks for your question.You can use a 2, 8 or even a 16 gigabyte SD memory card. Right now I'm using a 32 gig card.

I'm sure you got it figured out by now, but to anyone else, I use a CLASS 10 SDHC 8GB card with no problems. Key is that it is CLASS 10. And the video length can be changed in settings.

I've seen benchmark tests of various SD/SDHC cards and there do see to be speed differences according to brand. SanDisk is usually at or somewhere near the top so they're a safe bet.If you have an old SD card reader then you may well need to replace it. If you have documentation for the reader and it doesn't list being able to read cards above 2GB then it might be too old to support SDHC cards.

Micro SDHC is what I bought to use in it. Make sure it is a MICRO. I accidentally bought a regular one. I got mine at Wal Mart . Made by PNY 16GBHope this helps!

I'm using a 32GB card in mine. . I have a 64GB card also but did not use as it was SDXC. I figured it probably wouldn't work and didn't bother trying.

I have one of the first builds off the line which is the 4gB model. As I want to use it as a portable recording machine I needed more space, so I picked up an 8 gB SDHC card fo $40 Can/US. I originally used a 2 gB thumb drive, but that fills up when recording hours of audio at 44 khz/16 bit. Also, I like the card as its like a mini-hardrive - it doesn't stick out of the side like a thumb drive. Not sure how much the 8gB model is compared to the 4Gb.. but with expandable memory so cheap..

Which 8GB card are you usung? I'm wondering if the Transcend 8GB SDHC card advertised as class 6 will be fast enough when taking video with the S5 IS?

I had the same question at the same time! Just found the answer here: http://www.usa.canon.com/consumer/controller?act=ModelInfoAct&fcategoryid;=145&mode;lid=18183#SupportDetailAct and search for "largest" - it is the first answer in the list that comes up. For SDHC, it says: Secure Digital High Capacity currently supports capacities up to 32 GB.

Is anyone aware how long a video can be recorded on a 2GB SD card vs. a 4GB card? I'm not sure which frame rate video options the SD800 offers but assuming there's a "good" quality rate, how many minutes can I expect to get on each? I'm debating on whether to splurge on the 4GB card.thanks!!

I have found the Patriot 16GB SDHC Class 10 at Fry's for $50 is very compatible and a great value. Avoid all SDHC Class 2 or 4 if you intend to video. Class 6 is probably ok.Some cards cause the TX7 to ask for removal and reinsertion or even re-formatalthough it has been formated in the camera and photos processed.

JC - thank you so much for the wonderful suggestion about using a separate SD card reader! i, too was about to purchase the Canon A1000 IS and was turned off by the negative reviews of the software.i have a SansDisk card reader (that accepts SDHC) and plan to go this route. Thanks again!VK
