Digital Camera Memory Cards - Oh No, I Have No Place To Store My Pictures!
Before a person buys a camera, its memory capabilities need to be
fully understood as there are many different types - plus we need to know how much memory is needed and http://www.smasharticles.com/Articles/Hobbies/447.html |

Probably good advice for those who are using a 1meg camera or are just trying to replace their 35mm film camera. Concidering that a 6 meg camera shooting jpeg, a 128mb card would hold about 33 images. A 35mm roll having a capacity of 36 images would definately be equivalent to aprox 33 images on a card. But this does not take into account the way that photo enthusiests tend to take photos when freed up from the film and processing charges limiting us with film. When I go out on a photo safari, a day of shooting 24 to 36 images on film was a good day. Now with digital, a day of 100 images is not unusual. Randy ========== Randy Berbaum Champaign, IL |

Am I wrong, or did my Rebel XT not come with a 16MB CF card? If that's good enough for Canon, it's good enough for me. Take three shots, download and purge. Take three more shots, download and purge. dwight www.tfrog93.com |

My Fuji S2 and my Nikon D200 both came without memory cards, which seems good to me. Take three shots, download and purge. Take three more shots, download and purge. Yah, really. I'm remembering my first PC had a 20MB hard drive. That wouldn't hold two raw files from my D200. (I'd owned several other computers before then, both ran CP/M and neither had a hard drive. I was a somewhat late adopter, though, because what I could afford in a home computer was so grossly inferior to what I was used to using at work, until I could afford a PC with a hard drive.) |
