Verbatim and Transcend class 6 sdhc cards not fast enough for K-7 video

therion · 08-06-2009, 12:47 PM

I have tested 8GB Sandisk Ultra III 30MB/sec SDHC kart with my K7 and I´m not satisfied! In 1536x1024 mode I can record ONLY 7min 36 sec
(about 2.3 GB)!!!

I don´t understand where is the problem! The card should be fast enough!
I hoped I will be able to record about 4GB as it is stated in manual!!!

Costco in Canada has the Sandisk Ultra II 8G SD card for $25.49. The online price is higher though.
