Hi

Just ordered a 400D, now I need to think about CF cards. picstop.co.uk are doing a Sandisk 4GB card for around £20. How many jpegs will I get on a 4GB card??

Cheers
Stuart

Usually a good idea to buy a few smaller ones, rather than one big one. That way if it gets corrupted (and they do, flash memory only has a finite life) you won't loose ALL your holiday shots. Go for speed / quality over outright capacity. Couple of 2gb over one 4gb would be the way to go.
