According to
http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/canona620/page5.asp , the
A620 writes at about 3 MB/sec. 1X==150 KB/sec, so the camera can make
full use of 20X cards; faster cards won't buy you additional speed on
the camera.
However, if you use a card reader to transfer images to your computer,
you might get faster downloads with faster cards.
