Hi I'm not sure whether my post (Asking for any recommendations for 512M CF card supplies) the other day was caught by too many peoples spam filters? I'd expected more of a response, or is it that those of you who use big CF cards all have far too much money to worry about minor pricing issues? :-)) :-))
Some current prices: GBP exc. VAT <http://www.crucial.com/uk/store/listmodule.asp?module=CompactFlash&Attrib=P ackage&cat=> 104 <http://www.scan.co.uk/products/flashmem.htm> 83 <http://www.shopmemorycard.co.uk/acatalog/Integral_Compact_Flash.html> 104 Does anyone have any knowledge of the Scan CF card? - it does seem very much cheaper - is it really slow? (info says x10) I did have a response (thanks) pointing me to IBM 1G microdrives, which are better value per MB (~�120 for 1G). I'd thought about these but still have a few vague nagging doubts which I'd welcome any experiences on: * Robustness - they have moving bits in them :-)) ...I'm not looking at studio type use. Is it that once they're inside the camera, it's the camera that will break first? * Power consumption - how many extra sets of batteries will I need to lug around? I'm often out for several hours between chances to recharge/pick up fresh batteries Perhaps I'm still unduly influenced by recollections of Sinclair Micro Drives on the QL :-)) bye for now Keith Cooper Northlight Images http://northlight-images.co.uk Photography - Digital Imaging - Apple Mac Consultancy Tel +44 (0)116 291 9092 Mobile +44 (0)780 162 9397 =============================================================== GO TO http://www.prodig.org for ~ GUIDELINES ~ un/SUBSCRIBING ~ ITEMS for SALE
