I didn't have time to ask a dealer about a DV storage card.

(1) How long it take to record on a card? i.e. CompactFlash, Smart, etc... I hope that it would last two hours or more.

(2) What are the pros and cons for the cards?

Some DV have both video and still camera in one machine. It is pretty neat.



(DV - Digital Video camera)
 
Usually, that depends on the speed of the recorder and the type of camera. My friend had a DV that records on ordinary floppy disks. She could record 30-second videos onto disk. However, when the recording was done... it took about 10 seconds to put it onto the disk. My other friend has a different DV that records to memory card. This DV is smaller and faster too. She could record 30-minute videos and it would all be recorded to the memory card almost instantly.
