->> What are the memory card capacity requirements for the recently announced Video enabled DSLR's from Nikon and Canon?
Assuming the camera would be used to shoot video, how much video can you fit on an 8GB CF card?
If the memory requirements are available I haven't seen them. I was just wondering if heavy DSLR video shooters need to start buying 16, 32, even 64 GB cards. |

| ->> 3 minutes per gigabyte is what I've found using the 5D Mark II. Not a hard and fast number of course, but a pretty consistent average. Haven't used any other video DSLR, so I can only relate my experience with the 5DII. Get the biggest card your budget will allow. |
