I'm a little grey when it comes to memory storage, I have a Transcend, Ultimate, SDHC card, 16GB, Class 10.

Is there a faster one available for general use.

I know that CF cards are faster, but not a lot of good to me.
 
Check this one out SDHC pretty much the fastest you can get ATM for a good price that is!

Dave,

I made this point in the thread that Aled linked to but it probably could do ith airing again. Simply buying a faster card won't necessarily get you any better performance from your camera. Once you reach the write speed of your camera then buying a faster card is simply a waste of money as the writing speed becomes limited by the camera not the card.

Hope that makes sense :)

For OM-D use a 95MB/s for best performance (unless you've changed your camera again :) )

Thak you all for the replies.

The above link says it all, extract from it.....

I would just like to reiterate, that if you want the full performance of the E-M5 for high speed burst shooting (not the shooting rate but the buffer-clearing rate), you need a 600x or 95MB/sec card. UHS-1 is not enough and Class 10 simply means it will do at least 10MB/sec. For example:

45MB/sec (300x) is not enough to make much of a difference compared with run of the mill UHS-1 cards
