SD digital memory
Will my camera be able to write pictures faster to a fast SD card or
is the limiting factor the camera? A sales guy to me the advertised write speeds are for transferring to a computer.

A sales guy to me the advertised write speeds are for transferring to a computer. More typically the read spead or are you writing your photos from the computer to the flash card? jue

Depends on the camera. Some of them are the bottleneck, others can indeed use faster cards. Check manuacturer specs.

Actually my 10MP D-SLR pushes my Sandisk Ultra 2Gb to its limts in continuous shooting, my 2Gb Extreme 3 is not pushed at all. This when writing 16Mb RAW files.

Who exactly makes a 30 Mpix dSLR that uses SD cards??
