[QUOTE="Mediaman09, post: 55129, member: 9503"] Couple of newbie questions on memory cards: [B]1)[/B] I've seen many generic numbers quoted, but all without any qualifiers. On a 5100, at full resoltiuion, how many pics will a 16GB card hold in RAW format? In JPG format? [B]2) [/B]Even If I stick with Class 10, there is a very wide range of speeds available to me. Conventional wisdom to me has always been get the highest quality card (pics can be priceless) and get fastest the device can handle. So for my first SD card purchase, went with a 95GB/s Sandisk (still sealed) .. was this overkill or the right move?
