(NEW IMPORTANT UPDATE AS OF CHRISTMAS) 2gb ultra II mini sd. is it good? is it better than normal mini sd?

[Guest mikeeey]

hey does anyone have a ultra mini sd card? how much better is it than a normal sd (assuming it is better lol).

for christmas im thinkin of gettin a 2gb ultra II mini sd and rite now i got just a normal 2gb mini sd.

the reason why i want an ultra II sd is cause i love the program coolcamera and im hoping that it can record and write fast enough. with normal mini sd its not fast enough and the audio is off sync with the video.

so anyone thats done some video recording using an ultra II could i get ur responce on how it was?

if there's somethin better then that would be even more of a help.

thanks

much appreciated

I would be surprised if you saw much of a diference, it's normally the reader on the device that causes any bottlenecks.

well cuz if i record video strait to the device its perfect sync and better framerate, and when i use the memory card its worse (using coolcamera. htc camera video is off sync too tho). doesnt it use the same reader for both? just different dirrectory?

[Guest Confucious]

The bottle neck, as awarner rightly points out, is the speed at which the device is capable of reading the card. He measns the actual hardware card reader in the phone not the software reading the video.

so do u think its gonna be a waste of $100 to get an ultra? i wish someone had one so i could get feedback on it. here's the link to the description to it btw http://www.tigerdirect.ca/applications/Sea...313&CatId=0

Do we have any takers to waste $100 on this card?

It is 60X speed - my SD card in my Universal is 150X and I have noticed no diff between that and 4X cards - I have had various different speed cards and none of them have made any difference.

This one *could* be different of course and have some magic device that speeds up the bus on your phone so maybe I should buy one just to test.....

well its christmas! and i got my SanDisk Ultra II Mini SD 2GB! and it works perfect! its so much faster! its just as fast as recording to the device memory.

if ur into video recording then i recomend getting this card! its deffinatly worth it! no worrying about when people saying its the bottle neck speed and there will be no difference (awarner u were wrong! hahaha im glad u were wrong too. wat u said really started to worry me), there is a big difference! and u will notice it!

im really happy that this worked and now i can record high quality videos with excellent framerate. and coolcamera can take full advantage of this card.

again i really recomend getting this!

whats the maker of your old miniSD 2gb ??

is it Sandisk or what ???

[Guest mikeeey]

yes its Sandisk. just a normal 2gb made by them. same with the 1gb that i had before that, and it would have the voice/sound delay and slower framerate. the one i have now is also sandisk but just much much better.

even on my friends sda it had the sound delay so i sold him my 1gb when i got my 2gb and it still had the sound delay on his phone too.

when u say that do u mean they both record with the sound delay or they both record with perfect sync and the same framerate? was it a normal Sandisk 1gb like my very oldest one?

i have Sandisk card

yes it record with perfect sound and framerate

• but i dont try to record by the COOLCAMERA app i try this on the normal camera app on SP5 its only record 15 frame in a second
  

i know that the COOLCAMERA can record video up to 25 frame maybe thats why you need faster card

but i have the same problems that yours when i have SE p910

i buy for it memory stick DUO 256 mb

and then i buy the memory stick pro DUO 512 mb

but no good when i record video the sound and the framerate is poor

but after that i try to record in the mobile memory sound and the framerate is very good even the color of the frame is diffrent and good

enjoy with your new 2GB man and have a nice day :)

i use coolcamera cuz with the htc program it records horrible quality and small resolution. not to mention bad framerate, less than 10fps it looks rite. and still it would lag and not sync rite lol

o and look at this new video i took with it lol. its of my friend playing halo on xbox live and getting pissed.

it doesnt demonstrate the quality very well cuz its in a dark room, except the last 7 seconds where i realized that 1 resolution lower got brighter video, but it shows good framerate.

very good video WOW

lol.

actually its overclocked to 264mhz.

i recorded using 176x96, (read below)

aspect ratio 16:9,

90% quality,

and i had just the screen itself set on graysmall just to get a few extra frames for framerate.

i would get 24-25fps when recording.

i recorded at a 176x96 resolution, then the last 7 seconds of the video i found out that 160x80 worked much better and it was brighter.

if u record at a small resolution with really good quality u can upsize the resolution on the computer and it looks really good.
