Yes, you want to get a card. Mine came with a Sony 4GB Memory Stick PRO Duo. The setting I have it on is the 16:9 which gives me 4,535 photo's and 4:12:16 hours in video.

You can insert a SD card into the camera, then you can use the card to transfer the footage.

Buy memory card in addition, and if you need, tripod and case. Instruction disc was included in my package.

You can use a 16gb. That s/b all you need even shooting video. SDHC 16GB CLASS 6

I would get a good SD card for video high quality. I found the charger cord for the battery very cumbersome so I bought a plug in charger, small you slip the battery in and very easy and when charged back to the video camera. I also bought a case much easier to carry and hold all you need

you can change picture size so the count could vary. shooting video racks up space fast so you really should have a card to go with this camera.

You need to buy and SD card and install it before you record any video. They recommend at least a class 10 card.

You need a SD or an SDHC card - since you'd like to take HD video's I'd suggest a 4 or 8GB Class 6 SDHC card (Class 6 implies it reads/writes at at least 6 MB/s).

An SD card is needed. Any size any speed any manufacturer will work so long as it's an SD format. I recommend an 8 GB SDHC card though you can get faster and larger. That card is a good compromise. I have 32 GB cards and never get close to filling one up in a day even shooting RAW.

I am using a PNY 4 GB SDHC card. They are very inexpensive. About $5 to $10.

Hi Ed, the external drive will need to have some sort of device, computer or tablet, that has a card reader or can handle an external card reader. I have no issues backing up HD video footage on the drive. The device was plug and play meaning the driver auto installed, on a Mac. I have used SD, CompactFlash and Thumb Drives

SD cards. If you want to take videos they recommend class 6 or higher speed. It will handle 2 - 64 Gig cards. I have a 32in mine. 32 gig gives you about 4900 pictures at high res, or 2hrs,47 min of video.

open the camera app and you can take or record video. your are going to need to have a memory card for additional storage.

I had to purchase one when I bought the camera. If these are sold with one included they are usually on the lower end of storage so you would probably want to look to upgrade to a higher capacity card.

You do need an sd card to make recordings, we use a 16 gig and it holds more than 100 hrs

You can buy the standard SDHC card for this camera, but if you will be taking a lot of videos, you may want to buy a class 10 SDHC card. Alos watch for the read write capability. I bought a 16GB class 10 for mine.
