Hi All

My SWMBO decided she needed a new camera and "we" looked at the Canon SX20IS, Fuji 200EXR and the Lumix FZ-38

Having looked at all three she decided on the FZ-38 today and though she could have saved some money buying online decided to give the sale to the local Panasonic shop whose staff were most accomodating & helpfull.

Well when it came time to "buy" I asked them to make the sale sweeter and they sold us 2 off 4GB SDHC for the price of one!

Now the cards are Class 2 but labeled on the pack 10Mbps speed. I have just checked a download of the manual and though it states the 10Mbps speed as appropriate it also "states" Class 6 is recommended. So which bit of info is right/best is it the stated speed or the Class6 ???

Did we accept cards that are barely capable of good still images write speed and possibly too slow for any longish HD videos ???

TIA for your informed feedback and subject to some guidance I will take this up with the shop tomorrow!

I use 16GB SDHC class 6 cards in my Fuji S100fs and don't find them any different to my old 4GB Class 2 cards regarding speed
