[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 137225, member: 13090"] There is no "recommended size" really; a bigger card holds more files but why pay for space you won't use? A 16GB card holds almost 700 RAW files on my D5100 which suits me fine; but then that's me. As for brands, everybody has a favorite I suppose. Having tried many I don't think you can beat SanDisk memory cards and they're all I use now; specifically their [URL="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007M54E08/ref=sr_1_12?ie=UTF8&keywords=Flash memory card&qid=1365900265&s=electronics&sr=1-12"]Extreme 16GB SDHC[/URL] which is rated at up to 45MB/s. Be it known those advertised speeds are maximum speeds the card CAN achieve, not the speed the card WILL achieve. I'd love to be getting that kind of throughput but even so, these are definitely some fast cards. If I couldn't use SanDisk I'd fall back on Transcend memory cards and not have a worry about it.
