Just the price, never used a Hi-Speed card no need for it. IMO.

I think the High Speed card has actually just been replaced by something else.

I use the standard cards in my CX6 HD camcorder. If they are fast enough for this, they must be fine for a standard cam.

4GB cards are £30 at Play and Amazon.
