BTW3, I would have had to scale back to 32gig, and though 64 gig will
hold 15,000 photos, more than I will probably take in 50 years, I want
it to be big, just in case I see something worth video-recording. I
would hate to run out of memory in the middle of a big news story.
(The camera says it will take a maximum of 20 minutes, but I can do
that over and over.) Googling, I see that for hi-def video from 24
to 6 mbps, I can get between 640 to 1440 minutes. That's over 6 hours
to 24 hours, minus whatever I've already used for still photos. Though
I don't actually know how to convert what the camera manual says into
any of these values. Still, that should be enough to record until I
fall asleep.

Apparently mpeg-4 Part10 1280x720 is equal 3 mbps so I'll be able to
shoot video for 48 hours. But who's going to watch it.

But SD cards are so cheap now, as low as 8 dollars for 32, and 18 for
64GB.

Hey, this means I can get the big one for the slot in the netbook. I'd
been thinking so much about the camera, I forgot about that.
