I believe Type 2 are thicker - don't know if there is any power
requirement difference.
The advantage of microdrives for me was one of cost. When shooting
weddings in raw, I don't have much time to change cards, so was
looking for higher capacity. The *istD is relatively slow at writing

What's the deal with Type 1 and Type 2 CF cards? My recollection is that
one is somewhat larger in some dimension than the other. If that's the
case, is there any problem or caution using one or the other in the istD?
Bruce, do you find an advantage using a micro drive over a regular CF card?
Type II cards are thicker. The D takes type II cards (All Microdrives
are Type II).

Bruce,
Shel, Microdrive are typically of lower cost for the same capacity as
a normal flash based CF card.
They are in fact hard disk drives and as such are more prone to
problems (in theory at least).
Also, my Hitachi 4GB one (Seagate ones are supposed to be much faster)
are a bit slow... when checking
What is the maximum size of a Compact Flash card for the *istD?

Perhaps you mean capacity? I recall that 4GB was mentioned at some point
... but don't base any decisions on my comment. I mostly posted it to
stimulate interest in the question as I'm curious as well.

As far as I know it can use any CF card (up to the 32GB that the
CF spec allows), although the largest CF card I've seen is 16GB.
But I really
