A memory card is basically what it's name suggests. It stores a memory or image of all photographs or videos taken by a digital camera. The modern day equivalent of the old movie or camera film, today they have transformed the way images and videos are stored and the quality of the stored images. Memory cards have replaced tapes and are fast replacing CDs and DVDs in music and video distribution industry as well.
The greatest advantage of all digital video cameras, apart from the higher quality of the camera lens etc., is of course the memory card. These cards have a capacity of anything up to 2GB's. The cards can store videos of immense length, and once those have been transferred to a computer, they are back on the camera again, ready to roll for the next lot of videos. Most cameras come equipped with fairly small memory cards, and it is a standard procedure to purchase either one or two extra large capacity memory cards, depending on your storage requirements.
Memory Card
There are several formats of memory cards available. Each one of them is built for either one or two specific cameras, and you must check as to which one is compatible with your particular camera. The formats vary mainly on their speed and storage capacity. The quality of the image produced is generally similar in most video cameras, it is just the inbuilt compatibility requirements which differentiate each card. It is always recommended that you purchase a card which is compatible with more than one gadget, in order to avoid problems in the foreseeable future when you might want to upgrade or change your camera.
Higher speeds are also another distinguishing factor among memory cards. For an amateur photographer speed may not be such an active component of his requirements, but for a professional video camera person, it is one of his most essential needs. The speed with which his camera takes a video can determine the difference between a good video and an average one.
A useful accessory for a memory card is the memory card reader. This does not cost very much and gives you the flexibility of being able to copy the videos from your card on to the computer without having to connect your camera to your computer. You can thus insert another card into your camera and continue working with that, while the first card is being downloaded on to your desktop or your laptop.
The prices of memory cards have been falling recently. As their capacity and their speeds increase, so do the manufacturer's ability to produce them at less cost and make them more efficient. The prices vary according to the type of camera they are compatible with and the brand name. If you are looking for an extra card, you do not have to go in for the more expensive cards, just buy one which is compatible and has at least a year's warranty. However, if speed is of prime importance, then buy the higher value cards which will save you time and provide greater quality.
