Typical short notice request from a mate for his daughter. Not sure of where they're based though. Looking at Amazon express post too.

Andybobandy wrote: » So far so good, I'm still experimenting with it, using different settings/resolutions etc.. I had a 64GB (class 10) card in it and was getting some write errors, so as per the instructions, formatted the card to Fat32 on my mac, and it didn't really help the situation, (some video clips were coming in in audio only, and when the video did record, there would be glitches in it from time to time) I had a quick look online, and people are saying 32GB cards are still the best, so I took one of my 2 32GB (class 6) cards I was using in the 0801 and voila, it worked perfect, seamless video over multiple clips. Probably didn't need to buy the 64GB card, I guess I only bought it because the camera supports up to 128GB, but for me, like with the 0801, 32GB is more than enough (5+ hours recording at full resolution) I wouldn't say it's a million times better than the 0801, but it does seem a bit better than it, I'm hoping it will be a lot better once I've found the best settings to use it at. and shall report back my findings.

Andybobandy wrote: » What size card are you using? I always find with the 32GB card, 5+ hours is more than enough time for me to get home and review/save the clips onto my computer. When I got my 0801 I bought 2 32GB cards so I could swap them out if/when I needed, meant I could always bring the card in with me after an eventful day, and even if it took me a few days to get round to it, I'd have the other card in the camera.
