Like I said for my last trip in 2003, I only had a 512 and a 128mb compact flash card. I even stayed for 2 weeks but also brought my laptop with me and I kept a total of 500 pictures.
This 1gb SD card is the highest I ever had. My next trip won't be till 2008 and I'm hoping that I won't have to bring the laptop with me. I'm going to try and be a good girl and leave it at home.
Guess I might be investing in more 1gb cards. 2 gb would be nice but then if it fails, it's such a waste of $. With the dell website, you can get (2) 1gb cards for the same price as a 2gb. At least this would give me 2 cards incase of a failure (instead of 1).
Keep in mind that the bigger the card, the more pics it holds - which is not a good thing if your card glitches.
I never put more than one day's pics on any single card; that way, I will never lose more than one day's pics if the card glitches, dies, or goes missing.
