SanDisk CF card
2009-05-18The Extreme III card works as expected, just like all my others. I wanted the 2GB for shorter/quicker shoots. Delivery was on-time.

hit or miss - this died after a few months
2009-04-21Seems that electronics are like light bulbs. Some last forever, some burn out almost instantly.
This 2GB card died after a few months of light use. Indoors, air-conditioned studio. Used only 1/2 the time (alternating between two cards). Even on days it was used...maybe a few dozen pictures, cycled 2 or 3 times through the camera.
Manufacturer honored the warranty, but we had to ship it to them first. So, we were out the use of a card for over two weeks.
Ordered a long 5-meter USB cable and hung it off the tripod. We'll try keeping the card in the camera and see if it works any better.

a best buy
2009-02-04been looking for a vendor who marketed the compact Flash cards for my camera. Amazon hooked me up real quick with a very responsive vendor and a very reasonable price for a top of the line procuct. They came with cute little carrying cases as well.

Fast product for action sports
2008-10-22I really like using this product for taking shots of hockey. When I use the multiple shots on the camera, the card reads the shots quickly; there is not much "lag" time.

Quickie
2008-09-16This is a very fast memory card. It can keep up with my Rebel XT shooting 3fps.

VHS
The VHS format is the oldest type of camcorder. This type of video camcorder
is fast becoming outdated, because you can only play back
the video on a VHS VCR system. VHS
camcorders are not nearly as clear as digital
video camcorders that offer clear video with 540 lines of resolution,
VHS video cameras only offer 240 lines of resolution. They also weigh more
and are much more bulky, that dv camcorders. You can only find these video
camera used because their technology is now outdated.
VHS-C
The VHS-C format offer 240 lines of resolution, just like VHS. These analog
camcorders come in a smaller size that the VHS camcorder models, but use

Digital camera batteries
Batteries are vital for all photography and makiing sure that you have a spare set is essential if you intend to take alot of pictures. Print digital also recommend that when deciding upon a digital camera keep in mind what sort of batteries it takes. Does it take rechargeable batteries, are the batteries built and do you have to plug it into the mains, or does the camera only take standard batteries, if so then it can become exspensive if you are a keen photographer and use the camera alot.
There are three types of rechargeable batteries: NiCD, NiMH and Lithium-Ion. Nickel Metal Hydride are the most popular rechargeable batteries at present. They hold more charge than their counter parts NiCD and don't suffer from memory effect. The one small down fall of these batteries is that they will loose a small amount of charge even if they are not being used, so be sure to check the batteries before using them.
When you purchase a new digital camera make sure to ask what type of battery ...
