Sony 16 GB Memory Stick PRO-HG Duo HX with USB Adaptor MSHX16G (Black)

I was, at first, a little bit skeptical about buying this, but I'm so glad now that I did. For everyday usage, this little speedy devil is the only thing I need in my pocket shooter, besides batteries of course. I've had this thing in my pocket shooter for over 2 months now and I haven't had to delete anything off of it yet! Although it would probably be good practice to backup the pictures and delete them from the memory card, I'm just a tad bit lazy in doing so.

I haven't had any other cards to compare it with yet, but the speed is very noticeable when transferring files to a computer using the adapter that came with it. I've used multiple flash drives that were no where close to the speed this thing is at. Especially when it came to writing, I was able to write a file to this thing that was roughly 2.5 gb in under 2 minutes while my 2 gb flash drive took over 4 minutes just writing multiple files of around 200 mb each.

A very good buy if you have the cash for it. Otherwise if you just need the storage space and not the speed, then there are cheaper sticks out there that can do that. Of course, this product is only for pocket shooters than can actually support it.

So far I've purchased two of the Sony 16GB memory sticks. My DVD Camcorder had an internal 16GB so with the auxilliary one I found I could record my 'filming' directly to the solid state storage and haven't found the need as yet for the DVD disk! My Sony HX-1 also has remarkable storage so I am a big fan of big storage!

The Pro-HG Duo HX Memory Stick works great with my new Sony HD AVCHD HandyCAM. Fast transfer rates and USB adapter make this the MS Stick of choice. At least for now.

Excellent memory for the Sony digital camera. Works well enough that I can shoot in continuous mode, at up to 5 frames per second, and the memory card has no problems keeping up. Size is large enough to give "limitless" pictures, and video.
