Hi everyone,
I'm planning to get XZ-1 perhaps by next month (hoping for Ramadhan special discount  ). Do you guys think 8GB SDHC Class 4 card is fast enough for the camera? I'm looking for deal which offers extra ori battery as I would like to buy the card separately. Hope I can join this club after Raya |

QUOTE(Valentino46 @ Jul 6 2011, 10:53 AM) i trade the card with spare ori battery for 1.5k package...its the best deal at the time i surveyed around,maybe u could get cheaper price by now That's kind of answer I'm looking for. Thanks bro. I also thought of trading the card for ori battery, as battery usually pricier than card and card always getting cheaper. I don't know the market price for ori Olympus battery but I assume it should be more than RM100 right?as for the card speed,i'm using it with sandisk extreme pro uhs-1 coz being kiasu,but in truth i find no discernible different in practice than my cheapo standard sandisk class 4 card(the blue one),my best guess are because the buffer depth of this camera is quite deep and the file isn't so huge to digest,my advice is try your existing card first,if u find its slow only change,card are getting cheaper everyday anyway,so every minute u shrud off buying it is a saving |

I got mine for 1599 in sungai petani..for sure more expensive than KL price but I got 8gb SD card, casing and tripod..but my olympus casing not arrive yet so they gave me panasonic one first then will replace it after stock arrive. so far I love it with the performance..there are significant smearing if crop 100% but important and good pics will always go to the Lightroom..
