This camera can shoot a max of single 4GB video file at a time. If you are thinking of doing some video shooting with it, I suggest you buy a SDHC 8gb card. A 4GB video file at the best resolution setting renders you about 32 minutes of video. With the 8GB card, you can do some video and shoot some photos without having to change a SD card. Currently, newegg.com has a A-Data 8gb SDHC card for $51, but with a $20 rebate, it is only $31 + shipping. $ per GB is the cheapest you can get. I bought one card and it works great!

I bought a very inexpensive 2GB SD card of the Crucial brand. These are almost always on sale somewhere on the Web. It's not rated at a super high speed (40x), but it seems to work fast enough in my A590IS. I contacted Canon Tech support re. what would be the optimum speed chip to get for the 590 and they didn't seem to know. Duuuh..., so I ended up with the Crucial. I don't use the highest res setting, as the lens isn't really up to it, so there's room for plenty O' pix on the 2 Gigger. .bh.

With this camera I bought the 7 day shop professional high speed secure digital high capacity SD HC memory card - class 10. It has been superb with the camera and was a competitive price - mine is 32GB though - which is more than enough for me.I hope this helps.Paul

I've tried a 32GB SanDisk Ultra in a Canon IXUS 130 (about 10 years old) and it works fine.One of the answers on the Amazon forum states "I just put in a 32G Sandisk Extreem and it WORKS". The A720IS is about 7 years old.

If you download your photos once a week a 4GB card should be more than you will ever need. I only have a 4GB (class 6) card in my Canon XSi and it's more than adequate.

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.

Any brand of SD card should work. If you mean size, it depends on how much you want to spend. I use a 2 GB card and have never run out of space before I uploaded the pictures on it to my computer.

Any standard Sandisk memory card. I would not spend the extra for the "extreme" series unless you are planning on climbing Everest.

If you search "Nikon + memory card" you can find a page on Nikon's site for various recommended cards, depending upon your needs (for photo or video). For photos a SDHC card works well. I am using a Wintec FileMate (32GB) which is speedy and handles video well too.

I have been using a Sandisk 4GB SDHC (class 2 speed), and a Sandisk 8GB SDHC Extreme III (class 6 speed) with this camera and both seem to work fine. I've noticed that some retailers claim in their "specifications" sections that this camera can only use cards up to 2GB (not SDHC), but I haven't found this to be the case. I'm not sure if I'll actually be able to get the full 4-8GB storage capacity out of my cards, but compatibility hasn't been a problem. Hope this info helps.

Great tips in this thread, thanks.I can't find what memory card I can get for my new 790. Does anyone know if it will take an 8 or even a 16 gig SDHC card? And can I use a "Class 6", or is it only able to accept/benefit from a "Class 4"? Can anyone recommend a solid, inexpensive card reader for SDHC cards? Thanks for your replies.

"SanDisk Extreme 16 GB SDHC Class 10 UHS-1 Flash Memory Card 45MB/s SDSDX-016G-AFFP" is what I have used. It's fast and has ample storage.

I know you want to spend under $50, but you need to spend at least $100 and buy the Sandisk Extreme memory card that is 16 gigs, it is a class 10 card and it has a 30mb per second read and if you go anything lower then that, then you will never untap the true potential of this cameraLook on here or on Ebay and enter Sandisk Extreme SDHC 16gb and you can find some priced around $100, if you are willing to settle for an 8gb card, you can get the same card for $50 on both sites

We're using a Sandisk 4G SD high capacity card and its working great. I think any of the SD cards work. Best to get biggest you want to buy for max pics.

I'm no camera expert but my son-in-law is a semi-professional photographer and uses a Canon (not sure its a rebel) but if your camera calls for using compact flash memory, you should be able to use any size capacity (GB rating) card. The physical size of the card is no different if 1 GB or 64GB. The only limitation would be if there is a maximum size card -- in terms of its GB capacity -- that might be recommended by Canon for your particular model.

Very nicely done review.... But I think I'll wait for the next version before a purchase. I bet it will have a SD memory chip slot. Meanwhile, my new Canon A560 digicam ($130.00) has the latest SDHC slot which will allow for rather extended length videos when using a high capacity card (4-8 GB). Not quite as convenient as the Flip, however.

You need to buy any SDHC Memory Card - I recommend this one: SanDisk Extreme 32GB SDHC UHS-1 Flash Memory Card Speed Up To 45MB/s, Frustration-Free Packaging- SDSDX-032G-AFFP (Label May Change) [Old Version]
