DSLR Dilemma......

[Dr. House]

If I do record of 720p and 1080p 30fps videos, how many minutes 8GB can handle?

What about JJC hand straps?

@inci that setup looks good...I will also make something soon now I want one too

@house ...for recording full HD you will need a class 10 card ...a card with 45MBps write is enough for that

an 8GB card will write about 8 minute of recording 1080p@17MBps (standard) but remember a DSLR can take only 10 to max 15 min video at a time. then it need to cool off the sensor before you record again

I think JJC card are fine and known brand

JJC is a good brand ,Im using their Lens Hood

For Video check here....Nikon D5100 Review: Full Review - Video

Thanks @ Sujoy.....

Canons Video Compression is pathetic,Nikons is better......

@Sujoy Sandisk 16GB EXTREME SDHC SD memory card class 10 45mbps SONY CANON NIKON COD | eBay
or
TRANSCEND 16GB CLASS 10 SD SDHC CARD FOR CAMERA+LIFETIME WARRANTY | eBay

Transcend is cheaper class 10 card and I guess can record 1080p videos smoothly.

 

[sujoyp]

its written on transcend that it can do 20MBps I think it will work ...Sandisk is more reliable although

 

[The Incinerator]

Sujoy ,of late Sandisk Extreme versions have a high failure rate........the non extremes are good though......and the normal C10 the non UHS-1 works at Class 6 speeds generally for write....

 

[Dr. House]

but as inc said speed gets half when it work this means 20 MB/s will work as 10 so not good for HD videos.

 

[sujoyp]

no no u read it wrong Dr.....he ment that its 45MBps read speed and write speed is almost half thats 20MBps

@inci yes I too read the failure of sandisk ...in US people are preferring transcend more nowdays

 

[Dr. House]

Going with TRANSCEND 16GB CLASS 10 SD SDHC CARD FOR CAMERA+LIFETIME WARRANTY | eBay

 

[The Incinerator]
