Yeah, but the thought of shooting 34 RAW shots on a 512, then having to change cards.. so much for the digital no-more-film-loading advantage! I think the 1GB cards are probably the most practical option, but I was still thinking of the 2gb, not because I'm a gambler, but because I'm quite confident in a reasonably big name like Lexar or Sandisk (though Lexar does offer the WA 'technology'.. anyone compared it to normal CF cards?), and wasn't he talking about his experience with rather dodgy cheap CF cards? Also, I think babying my equipment counts for something too. Of course, if something goes wrong, I'll let you reserve the right to go 'I told you so'. :)
