Default Re: Memory Card speeds

Thru the last few years, as the memory size of the cards increased, I bough them. At this point I carry 8 GB, 6GB, 4GB, 2 GB (one of each) and two 1 GB cards. Mainly use the 8, 6 and 4 GBs cards...the others are just reserve.

The greater the card capacity the less I have to worry about replacing them when they get full, less handling and less chances of loosing them.

Why would one worry about one high capacity going bad more than a 2 or 1 GB? Never experienced a card failure, either solid state or microdrive in the last 5 years of using them. Only drawback, downloading them to a portable image tank or PC; it takes a long time.
