I still have my 128 and 256 cards in the bag.LOL Mostly i have Kingston 1gig and Sandisk 2gig Extreme III's.
I remember reading a few years ago, that using smaller cards was better in the case of data failure and recovery. His theroy was that if you shoot smaller cards, say 4 1 gig, as apposed to 1 4 gig card, and 1 card had problems, you can still have data on the other three, were as if all the data is on the 4 gig card, and something happens, you stand a chance of loosing everything. Made sense to me, and i try and adhear to that. Specially after my near miss a few weeks a go. Dave Quoting Dave Kennedy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > Actually, I've sticking with 512M cards (mostly).
