I'll go you one better.
I've used 8" floppies (in a CPT word processor), but I've never even
seen a 12" floppy, though I did write a program using punch cards.

Actually, finding an IDE controller for an ISA card slot would be no easy
task, since virtually all hard drives in the days of the XT were either MFM,
RLL or SCSI (ESDI was too minor to count). By the time the 16 bit bus
appeared in '84, Compaq was using lots of Conner IDE drives in their 80286

OK
That makes even more sense. I assume you can use both
slots at the same time. Since IDE supports 2
drives/channel and I guess the sd is acting like an
ide.

I guess it begs the philosophical question
What would you call a guy who has an XT PC with an 8
bit ide controller with a ide-pcmcia adapter going to
pcmcia to CF adapter going to a CF to SD adapter
going to a 4gb sd card and no OS to boot with?
Who does his tech support?
I should try that some

I figured out on my own a long time ago that deleting images from a CF
card and continuing to shoot was a losing proposition and I stopped.
CF cards are designed to run circularly through their memory to avoid
wearing out any cells. They used a primitive filesystem that is
about as robust as usi

I had no idea the Mk2 had an sd instead of a cf. I'm
not surprised. The SD is a better and more resilient
package than the cf
Hi Schlake,

I'm not sure that's the reason. The reason is for access time, they want to
keep the files concurrent, as in, no scatter/gather. It's a valid reason,
but causes problems if you have file
Is this seriously an issue? I've shot hundreds of thousands of photos on my
10D, 1D, and 1D.2, chimping heavily and deleting much. Still do and always
will chimp and delete on the fly. Since buying my first DSLR somewhere
around 6 or 8 years ago I have had exactly 1 compact flash card go bad on
me.
Not sure why but for some reason I can't seem to do a

I wonder if the problem was with the cameras or the CF cards since the

Hi,
Does anyone have personal experience with using an SD card in a 'SD to CF
Converter' with Eos 350D ?
After having recently discovered the joy of shooting RAW I find my existing
CF card inadequate and was planning to get another CF card. But then I also
have a Powershot a710 which uses SD card
No. It has a 1394 port and a cf slot. But you can get
an adapter that allows you to use oither smaller
cards. That's the best betr because you don't play
with the delicate cf pins. Instead you play with the
more rugged card edge of the smaller card.
