Silicon Power Memory Card Differences - SDHC vs HD specific?
 

I've been reading some reviews for Silicone Power memory cards and they seem to have very good read/write speeds at a good price, but I need some help with the types they do.

I want to buy a Class 6, 8Gb SD card, one of the following:

My camera is a Panasonic DMC-ZS3 which is capable, in addition to stills, of HD video.
I am unclear about what benefit the 'Full HD Video Card' has over the standard SDHC card.
Does the Video specific card allow you to take photos?
What are the video recording benefits?

Cheers,

From the spec the only difference I can spot is that the video version has built in error correction. The speed is the same 6Mbytes per second (x40).

Whether this means an interface difference I am not sure as I use CF cards.

Otherwise I suspect it is just marketing to sell one to the still market and the other to the movie market. Why you should need error correction for movie, who knows.

It's a bit like computer memory, your standard machine will take the bog standard stuff or a high end machine take the expensive error correction stuff.

Robski,
Thanks. I guessed that it might be a marketing gimmick.
