If you have a digital SLR camera and like to shoot in RAW+JPEG mode, or if you use a digital video camcorder, you're going to need all the space you can get, at a decent speed and with reliability you can count on. That's where the 16GB PNY SDHC memory card comes in.

I own a 4GB SD card, but that just wasn't big enough sometimes. On my digital SLR camera with a 12 megapixel sensor, using RAW (original uncompressed photo file) and JPEG mode can make each shot take up around 20 megabytes each. This soon adds up, and I was filling that card quit easily. So I opted to buy this card, but was unsure how reliable and fast it would be after trusting my Sandisk for so long. I had no need to worry, as it has never corrupted or given me any issues whatsoever.

Furthermore, even though I don't format my card very often, I have thus far never filled it up. 16 gigabytes really is a huge amount of storage, and would probably only be used up easily by long periods of high definition video recording.

At the end of the day, a memory card is a memory card, and there's only so much you can analyse about it. Does it do the job? Flawlessly. At a decent price too; mine was £17.99 quite a while ago on sale. If you need a high capacity, fast SD card then you can't go wrong with this offering from PNY.
