I think it&#8217;s pretty cool that I was able to record two hours of HD footage on a single card. In fact, I only filled up about half of the 16 gigabyte card.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here&#8217;s what the card looks like:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"204\" height=\"139\" src=\"https:\/\/wysz.com\/wyszdom\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/02\/16gb-microsd-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1561\" title=\"16gb-microsd\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>To give you a little perspective on its size, let&#8217;s compare it to something.
