Other owners - long capture times on your cameras? Mine takes nearly 3 seconds to capture to UHS class 10 card, more to older SDHC.

I recommend you report that to Canon Customer Service and see what they say. If, as I expect, they will indicate something not right, I'd send it back to Amazon in exchange for another since still in Amazon's 30-period for returns rather than sending it to Canon for repair. I have always gotten a very quick from Canon Customer Service and am very satisfied with the service I have gotten from them.

I just tried several shots with a 32 GB class 10 card and it seemed to clock in at about half the time you are experiencing at most.***Update*** I just purchased a SanDisk 64GB Extreme Pro class 10 and it says it is rated at 95 MB/s. The 32GB ws an Amazon Basics class 10 card. With the new card, there is no appreciable delay.I hope this helps.Don

Frederick, I was reading a review this morning of the SX700, which said "The overall speed of the camera is decent when it comes to shot-to-shot performance, and we experienced no lag during our tests, even though a preview showed up immediately after each shot." This certainly confirms that something is wrong with your camera.

I have no idea what a Class 10 card is. Mine takes 32, etc., but I use regular SD cards. So I am no help.

As a class 10 device it's required to have a minimum of 10MB/s ... in standardized tests. (Meaning real-world could find it slower in certain cases.) No other speed is listed for it, so I'd have to assume that's it's speed. Especially as it was one of the early class 10 devices. So 40MB/s is highly unlikely. Besides, your camera gives you a list of recommended cards (of which this card isn't in the list) which would probably be the best place to look: SanDisk Extreme 32GB microSDHC (SDSDQXL-032G) SanDisk Extreme 64GB microSDXC (SDSDQXL-064G) Lexar 32GB SDHC 600x (LSDMI32GBSBNA600R) Lexar 64GB SDXC 600x (LSDMI64GBBNL300R) Delkin 32GB SDHC (DDMICROSDPRO2-32GB) Delkin 64GB SDXC (DDMICROSDPRO264GB) Samsung 64GB SDXC (MB-MGCGB/AM)

For fastest performance, turn off the instant shot review, use Priority mode and get the fastest SD cards you can. Using a high ISO can also slow things down due to the noise reduction processing

After owning this machine for about 3 months, I have my question answered. I have tried class 4, 6 and 10 SDHC cards, and they all perform nicely without any problem, all the video (1080i) playback were smooth no matter they were recorded by class 4, 6 or 10.Also, still very happy about my purchase, just came back from a family vacation over the summer, and this one device does it all, my camcorder is now collecting dust.

I have a 16 gig card in right now... It has about 600 pictures and 4000 songs... It takes a while honestly... My guess is it takes anywhere from 8-15 mins...

What memory card are you using, if any? They can be a significant cause of delay...

I tried two 64gb cards. They both seemed to record but both gave error message saying they were too slow (although they were rated fast enough). I went back to a 32gb and all is well.

I also had issues with a SanDisk 32GB Class 10 MicroSDHC. I have since switched to a Transcend 32GB MicroSDHC Class 10 card and everything has been okay. (Amazon ASIN B00CES44EO)

As with most electronic devices like camera's and camcorder's the new SDHC cards my not work. The class 10 SDHC cards are ultra fast and may not work in your camera. It may only use class 2 or 4. Check your owner manual. Hope this helps.

5 minute is the longest. It continues recording automatically. Get a good so card.

I ordered this one: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009QZH7BU/ref=oh_details_o07_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 It's a SanDisk Ultra 32 GB MicroSDHC Class 10 UHS-1 Memory Card with Adapter (SDSDQU-032G-AFFP-A). I would suggest that once you put it in, leave it in. Even removing and reinserting it with the power off will cause it to rescan the next time you power on. I picked a high speed device because of the scan time. It takes several minutes of scanning after I've put more music on it. I've got about 5 gig free, so it takes a long time to go through 27 gig of music.

I did have this problem with my "Canon" digital camera. I downloaded a program called "ZAR" (for ZeroAccountRecovery), which SUCCESSFULLY RESCUED 92% of the photo images on the SDHC card after about 1.5 hours of scanning the card. There is NO FEE for this particular function of the software!

Is yours only recording a single 3 minute clip/frame/segment or a number of them? Check your settings. I have mine set for 5 minute frames/segments etc. It records continuously for several hours (32GB) but when I down load the card the entire recording is appears in 5 minute segments. Makes it easier to find a spot in the journey. ??????

I'm using a class 4 8GB SDHC card (Sandisk Ultra II) with my Canon S90 camera. Haven't gotten any hiccups so far and it loads images plenty fast for me. Though there are some cameras out there that will want a minimum speed from SD cards. For instance, most dslr cameras will benefit from using class 6 (minimum write speed of 6MB/sec) SD cards because it can shoot multiple frames per second. Some go as high as 9fps. There aren't very many Point and Shoot cameras that support such a high frame rate so in short they can't benefit from the latest and greatest SDHC cards.

I've ran mine 3 or 4 minutes without any problems, think it really depends on what size memory card you use
