Got this camera as a gift from my parents, mainly because I was the only one in the family without a camera. Also cause I'm going on a 8th grade trip ti Philly soon.

Very happy with it so far, Takes great pictures. Just gotta pick up a SD Card, thinking 2 GB will be fine.


Any of you guys hear good/bad things about this camera?

2 GB will probably give you about 500 pics at the highest quality. That's what my 8 meg camera does.

The zoom isn't that great on it, but the mega pixels defaintly make up for it. Very nice camera.

looks sweet, my sis has a 10 mp Nikon Camera, she's crazy about it lol, all the other specs are same as yours I think. I have a Sony Cyber Shot, 6mp with a 2gb memory stick in there

at today's prices you can probably get a good 4gb card in there. Got my sis a 4gb sd card for her cam a while ago.

Psh, I'm going for the 32 GB.
That'll give me over 10,000 pictures at high quality.
Not sure if that's enough.

I wouldn't recommend getting a memory card or flash drive with more than 8-16gb space

why?

It becomes extremely slow when it has to open up 16 gigs worth of files or pictures. It's better off if you get a 4-8 gig card, if it fills up, transfer it to your pc and reuse - PC Hard drives use a better connection and it's more stable.

they have flash drives that has like 128gb space which is crazy...a mini hard drive - they heat up fast. technology isn't advanced enough to keep it as "efficient" as smaller drives and memory cards.

Lulz, I was just kidding. I don't see a point in 32 Gb, since 2 Gb is like, $10.00

2gb is probably all ya need.

I got a good deal on two 8gb cards for $30.
It's a bit overkill for my needs but whatev, was a good deal <:
