So I bought the HD Camera, but now what?

[Laurencia7]

I am wondering if u guys know the best SD card to buy with top reviews and the faster transfer speed, I bought a Sanyo HD1010, and my card I got with a still camera combo pack is kinda slow, makes me nervous.

Any Suggestions on the best SD card brand and model?

Thx

Look at your user's manual. It should say whether you need a Class 4, Class 6, or whatever speed of card.

any card should work just don't get a cheapo discount one

I occasionally get write errors on cheaper cards. FWIW, my Panasonic class 6 card can keep up with my 720p camera no problem.

[Full-SHQ]: 1920 x 1080 (30 fps/12 Mbps),
[HD-HR]: 1280 x 720 (60 fps/12 Mbps),
[HD-SHQ]: 1280 x 720 (30 fps/9 Mbps),
[TV-HR]: 640 x 480 (60 fps/6 Mbps),
