The type used is called microsd, similar to this one: SanDisk Ultra 32GB MicroSDHC Class 10 UHS Memory Card Speed Up To 30MB/s With Adapter, Frustration-Free Packaging - SDSDQU-032G-AFFP-A [Old Version]

The package comes with a 15MB/s 8 GB storage SD card. It is excellent. Just took over 1000 photos on a vacation and I still have lots of room left.

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.

Personally I alway go by "you get what you pay for". I actually use the SanDisk Extreme III card. It has a 30mb/s rate, highest in its class I believe. The cards are a little on the expensive side, especially for the 16GB, but worth it I think. Because of the high compression rate, it take a while to download/transfer files, this helps with that when you have an average computer. Not an overwhelming difference, but enough to say "Awesome".

Get Sandisk Micro SD Card HC Extreme. Regular cards has a lower writing speed

Which 8GB card are you usung? I'm wondering if the Transcend 8GB SDHC card advertised as class 6 will be fast enough when taking video with the S5 IS?

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

A Sandisk Ultra (15MB/s) writes at about 9-10 so anything faster would be wasted, generally. I tested shooting RAW+JPEG continuous (11-13MB per shot, max 0.9 fps) and got a small delay of 21 instead of 28 shots in 30 sec. Perhaps an Extreme III 20MB/s card would help, if the camera can in fact write any faster. The manual says class 4 for video but my 1st gen EyeFi (2.3MB/s write) keeps up fine. This is just not a camera that needs a fast card. FWIW, for burst shooting, try "low light" mode. min iso 320 and 1/4 res, but does 3 fps jpeg

O.k so I got the 16gb sandisk extreme 3 sdhc card and with nothing on it it says on the LCD: "R10m30s". So, 10 minutes and 30 seconds. Hope this helps.

I am running two UHS-1 cards -SanDisk Ultra 64 GB MicroSDXC Class 10 UHS-1 Memory I have not formally benchmarked them but transfer using a USB 3.0 port is much faster than a 2.0 port.

I have this: 30 MB/S is printed on it, pretty fast. Purchased a SanDisk Extreme 80 MB/s for my new 70D also, but cannot sense the speed difference of the two cards in the camera.

Its a Class 10 Card which means its fast. I can say it does write faster than other Class 10 cards I have. I have a 24 MP camera and even at its top quality setting I have never had to wait on it. It also works very well in the Video mode. And the price cant be beat.

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.

I don't know if any SD card is so much better than another, but any name brand SD HC card works. I happen to like SanDisk myself. I use an 8gb currently but I know up to 64gb are available. To give you an idea of time, at 1080P (HD) video setting, I use approx 100mb per minute of filming, so 1gb is ~ten minutes: 8gb card should get about 70+ minutes (as an 8 gb card formatted is around 7.3gb usable)

Not this card. Stick with SanDisk. Expensive but worth it. This isnt U3. Its U1 with a write speed of 20MB/sec. Which is too slow for GoPro 4K. This product is intentionally mislabeled. They hid the actual model# with another sticker with the wrong model# [conveniently the same model number recommended by GoPro]. The correct model number for this micro SD card is LSDMI64GBB1NL633R.
