I use microdrives regularly in the *ist D. I've had the 4G card for several
months and filled it up several times. It'll hold 292 raw images or 991
.jpgs at highest quality. I also regularly use a 1 G microdrive that I've
had for several years.
In practice, for my kind of shooting, I don't notice any significant
difference between a regular compact flash and a microdrive (or any
difference at all for that matter). The only difference I have noticed is
that it takes about 5 seconds for the camera to power up and be ready for
the first shot, instead of instantaneously.
I've had the 1G microdrive for three and a half years and have not
experienced a failure or problem, and I do not give it any special care.

Dear All,
Has anyone had any experience in using these CF cards. Any advice would be
appreciated.
