Need help with a camcorder

My HD Camcorder takes SD HC memory sticks for its only storage
so I'm wanting to know:

In looking for a 32GB SDHC card currently found in stores, any help?

Toys R' Us has a 16GB SDHC card (not in stock but will be)
-that is acceptable but I'm aiming for the 32GB (lots more recording hrs!)

Thanks for any help!

Newegg.com - Computer Parts, PC Components, Laptop Computers, Digital Cameras and more! has all you'll ever need, cheap, fast shipping. A lot of parts get to me within 2 days of being ordered.

The largest capacity Sony lists is a 16 GB memory stick: Sony Direct Accessories - MEMORY STICK PRO DUO™ MEDIA MS-MT16G

As I alluded to in the other thread, getting the highest capacity currently available means much more $$ per byte. But, if you insist, go for the 32 GB. That's 16 hours HD video roughly.

eCost periodically has good deals on memory:

eCOST.com - Online Discount Superstore home electronics, computers, laptops, mp3 players (if you must have a 32GB SDHC card).

If you can be flexible, you can get two 16GB SDHC cards at an even better price:

There's something to be said for several smaller capacity cards. A few years ago, my memory card got fried - at the end of my trip to England. (rare, but it happens)

Since then, I spread my pics over several cards or bring a laptop for daily downloading.

I must have missed that; where does he say it? He said he wanted SDHC cards, which are not memory sticks.

Sort of confusing - either the cards or the memory sticks; we'll see.

SD HC is not memory Sony memory stick.

Also if you get a 32 MB SD HC card, try to get class 6 which will perform better with HD recording especially at high quality recording settings.

I got transcend 16 GB cards, class 6, with card readers. They were about $35 from amazon. 32s are hard to find.
