 | Hi Capacity CompactFlash Storage |
|
|
 |
| The next thing on your shopping
list should be a high capacity CompactFlash card. The 950
ships with an 8mb card and the 990 with a 16mb card. These can
only hold one full resolution TIFF image from their respective
cameras! Of course, using JPG compression and smaller sized images
extend the number of images that can be stored, but nothing gives
you the freedom to experiment like a large capacity card. We've used Sandisk
cards ranging from 48mb to 192mb. A really big card allows room
more than 150 of the highest resolution jpeg images |
|
| Since February we've been
using a 320 meg
Lexar card and find that it substantially faster than the smaller
capacity cards we've used. It appears that the larger cards are more
efficient and save the images faster. |

| Both
Lexar and Sandisk
are coming out with 512 megabyte cards this summer. |
| Since the summer is over,
I should state that I'm now using a 512 megabyte card from Lexar and love
the security of never running out of "film". |
