www.dslrfilmnoob.com I often get questions about memory cards. Well i've already covered Compact flash cards so lets take a look at SDHC cards. The canon t2i data rate is ruffly 45Mbits per second which is about 5.89Mbytes per second. Since class 4 cards are only designed to handle 4Mbytes a second they are probably not a good choice. Class 6 cards can handle 6Mbytes per second which is just enough to handle the video footage coming from your t2i However the price for Class 10 cards has dropped to the point that there isn't a good reason to risk using Class 6 cards. Class 10 cards can handle 10Mbytes a second which gives you plenty of head room for video recording. Plus if you plan to use the Magic lantern hack you might end up wanting to record at an even higher bit rate. So for a price difference of about $3 its worth it to spend a little extra and pick up a class 10 card. Sandisk a has the highest price Class 10 Cards on the market I would try one of the other brands like Transcend, ADATA, or PNY. 16GB Transcend card for $28: www.amazon.com Equipment used in this video: Canon 7d Canon 35mm f1.4 Zoom h1 sennheiser g2 wireless mic CPM film tools Rig Lilliput hdmi monitor
