Hi!

You wouldn't want an 8 gig card. It's not cost efficient. But you might want five one gig cards. That relieves you of the burden of downloading files in the field, and it's safer memory than the compact drive. In lieu of a compact drive, I use a laptop, which is no better or worse, just less manageable and more useful. In terms of memory stability, it's similar. But I carry at least five gigs of CF and clear card memory only if I must. I sometimes download just to look at what I've shot, but leave the cards full until I can get home and download them to my stationary drives and DVD backup.

Paul, you're disqualified ;-). No, really, laptop is a totally different story. Especially recalling that many modern laptops have either CD or DVD burner in them...
