Memory Card: Hey guys, Would it be cheaper to just buy the a memory card (say 4GB) and the 2 GB Creative Zen or just buy the 4 GB Creative Zen?

A 2G card is pretty cheap, so maybe, but I only paid $80 for my 4G Zen from Amazon. Realize that the files on the card are not integrated into the music menu, they're separate, on a separate menu. Although I have not tried an SD card yet personally, I have read that you can't navigate away from that menu without stopping the music.

I bought an 8GB HCSD, because I wanted to have more space. Manufacturer claims is a class 6 card, which is supposedly the fastest (or one of the faster cards). Using it, I found: 1. The RAW shooting, would take about the same time that took my 2G MicroSD with adapter, that is, if you're planning about taking bursts of pictures RAW, that won't do the trick. 2. I found the bigger size of videos is 2GB, and that appears to be limited by the filesystem of the cards it self. That's around 23 minutes in the highest quality mode.

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.

The 16gb is available in Asia. I just saw it on Creative's Singapore site. Unfortunately, they won't ship outside of Singapore.I'm going to hold on and wait for the 16gb to come to the U.S. I've been itching for this since I first saw it and I'm not willing to go with the 8gb version.

Dude, it's too expensive to order smaller quantities of 2 & 4 gig cards then have separate storage and more labor keeping them separate and pulling them correctly for the right order. mine came with a four gig so its just a way of offering you the option of paying $5 more if you'd like to. doesn't the other one you're talking about come with some sort of reusable condom in case you take your personal body camera to a golden showers party so it won't get wet?

Thanks for the info. I have decided on the 720 but am now confused on the memory card debate. I have read/heard conflicting opinions on sd vs sdhc. I'm thinking an sd 2gb should do everything I need without memory card error risks. Any thoughts as to upgrading beyond?

I put a two gig memory card in mine. It was kinda on accident. I bought I 1 gig on ebay and they accientally sent me a 2 gig. So I decide to try it. It works great and have no probs yet.

I use the recommended SanDisk SD cards. I'm a fan of the Ultra version, but you wouldn't necessarily have to buy the Ultra one. Because I take a lot of photos, I buy a 16 GB SD card. I watch for sales on them. I do stay away from brands that you see at Black Friday sales, or similar...you never know what you are getting...and you get what you pay for. Hope this helps.

Are we allowed to say competitor websites? (I honestly don't know) E-bay was a good place to get memory sticks at a cheaper price. Scan for a while and you'll find some good deals. I recently bought two 8 GB Memory Stick Duo Pros via the Buy it Now option - one was $25 and the other was $28.95 (each had free shipping and were new in package). As for the battery, I know of only the one battery, but maybe someone else knows of another?Hope this helps!

Your going to want to upgrade the memory card. I now have 4 cards that are 64 GB cards. This 32 card just doesn't cut it.

$100 more bucks for an extra 28~gigs? ouch. might as well just buy the 32gb edition and then pick up a Sandisk 128gb SD card that comes out soon (yes, it's compatible) and get more for your money. just my opinion though!

I bought the 32gb over the 64gb for only one reason a $100.00 savings. I carry 3days worth of music and around 8 hours of video.not to mention all the apps. for me the 32gb was the right decision. Brian

About the only reason for MOST PEOPLE to get more than a 2 GB SD card is because they intend to take movie clips. It would take an awful lot of still photos to fill up a 2 GB card! If you intend to take a lot of movies, go for a larger card.With any of these cameras, if you intend to take long movie clips, use either a high speed SD card or a fast SDHD card. I have to be honest. I am somewhat ignorant of the real world speeds of the SDHD cards, compared to the high speed SD cards, though there are websites that do comparisons of such things.

Hello, thanks for your question. According to the information on the Product Page, a 2GB SD or SD-HC Memory Card is recommended. This information can be found to the right of the product picture. I hope this helps!

I have the 4gb card. Memory is everything in gaming. Haven't found anything yet this card couldn't handle on high settings. Haven't seen the other card. The 4gb card runs cool. Future proof is good sense. My choice would be the more memory!

As far as I recall, the memory card is NOT included in the box. A 2GB SD memory card for about $6.50 will take you a long way (you should be able to store about one thousand photos on it). However, if you want to take several thousands of photos without changing the memory card, then you can buy a 4GB or 8GB or 16GB card. Or you can buy several 2GB cards and swap them as they fill up. In terms of price both approaches cost about the same. On eBay memory cards may be cheaper, but they may be less reliable as well. I buy mine either in Office Depot brick store or online at Amazon.com
