As your camera’s megapixel count increases, so does the file size. Your limitation now for taking more shots in succession is the transfer rate of the camera’s onboard memory card so you’ll need something fast. Something like Kingston’s Class 10 SDHC. The class number means that it has a minimum 10MB/sec transfer rate and Kingston claims the card can top at 22MB/sec read and 18MB/sec write speed. It will be available in 16GB and 32GB capacities. $129+.
The new Kingston DataTraveler 410 has marked improvements for better storage on the go. Available at 4, 8, 16, and 32GB capacities, the DT410 has faster transfer speeds of up to 20MB/sec read or write. The housing itself is improved, albeit simple. It features a capless design so you won’t have to go crazy in case you lose that precious USB storage cap. Another neat feature of the DT410 is the included SecureTraveler1 software that creates a ‘privacy zone’ to hide your unmentionable files. $115.
