Compact Flash memory!

Anyone have hook ups on this Compact Flash memory?

I just bought a digital camera a few days back and the 16 meg card that comes with it just isn't good enough!

Please drop me a PM/email or reply here if you can help.

Thanks guys,
Asim.

That's why you don't buy Sony and you stick with Canon!

I've seen them go cheapest on e-bay...

Remember the golden rule....

Buy twice the capacity you were thinking...

Thanks, Steve. I'll look through that price list.

Hey Thomas, I'm debating whether to go with 128, 256, or 512 now. Saleem is gonna make me go over budget, silly guy!

I want something fast as well.. I'll do my research and save some cash.

At what Res Thomas? Cause I don't shoot at anything less than 1600x1200 and superfine quality. That's the least I'll do for photo quality.

Yeah, Canada computer has a little store the smaller than my bedroom in Pac Mall located on the main floor at the North side towards the exits I think.

The prices are fair. IMO, the best prices are between Canada Computers and Logic Computer Warehouse. They're both in the Markham area.

I would avoid the Canada Computers in Pac Mall unless you either know exactly what you want or are chinese. I found the service to be really poor towards me since I'm brown and I've heard some funny stories as well.
