THanks to the several people that suggested using a high WRITE speed card. THat's (good) news to me, and I will definitely look into it.

( I really should have a blog or something to make notes of all this stuff ... but..)

As most cameras will have a hard limit on how fast they themselves can transfer the data, you could waste money in buying THE fastest card out there, only to find the camera can't take advantage of it.

I recall testing various cards on the Merrills, and I THINK my 45MB/s cards were as fast as it could go. 95MB/s ones didn't seem to make a difference. I think.

I imagine someone here with a better memory or note recording system to me would also have done the tests so if anyone could chime in and confirm/deny this, it would be good.
