Just got my new FZ28, looking for an upgrade to my SD card. The more I research, the more I came upon-SDHC (naturally), different classes, Extreme Digital II, III, etc etc. LOL, tell ya waht, I'd rather take the easy way out and reach out to the community. here's what I'll be doing. Some basic point n shoot, some RAW shooting. Occasionally on burst mode where I dont wanna be bogged down by writing to a limited card. Movies will be scattershot, but I will be taking them, so I'm looking 4-8 GB but muddled by the bevy of different variants. Dont want to be cheap and limit myself but nor do I want to have more card than I need. Suggestions from a knowledgable source? thnx in advance (also, I suspect ebay may be fraught with non authentic cards?)

Scroll down to Speed Class Ratings. (I've learned something new.)

The Extreme___ is a SanDisk product line.

Also, check out the prices at [url]http://www.newegg.com[/url]

I've bought Kingston sDHC flash memory (4 and 8) and haven't had any problems. 4Gbs might be best because you'll have to download more often. Every flash card goes belly up eventually and you don't want to have a lot of photos, etc. on it when it does. If you travel or day trip a lot, 8 Gbs is better, or 2 4's.
