$59 dollars is a small sum of money to you. Unfotunately, not everybody is as rich as you, to just spend money like drinking a glass of water. Besides already spend a lump of money on my new DSLR, camera accessories and flashes, I had also spending out another sum of money on my travel, winter wears and so on within this short period. I have make full use of what my have.
To shoot at the highest resolution, you will ended up with no more memories for the remaining trip and you do not want to delete away any single photos as you likes all of them and all are you hard work, then that even worst. You cannot shoot for the remaining days of the trip. That is the ULTIMATE DUMBEST IDEA out of the DUMD,DUMER, DUMBEST IDEAS!!!! Give me tens CF card also not enough.
Do I know how to use my camera? That is for you to find out.
Yes, I can afford the S$59 for a 1GB CF card, not becasue I am rich or not, because I prioritise my spending. I will not go out and spend S$2K on a camera and not leaving enough money to get the necessary accessories and supporting equipment for me to make the best use of my new camera.
If you don't have the money left over, you probably should have bought a 20D instead. There are still plenty new ones in the market, with full Canon warranty, for a lot less. Since you spent the big bucks to get the 30D, I assume that another S$59 should not be a problem.
Oh, 10 GB not enough, well, 100 GB also not enough, setting at the lowest resolution shooting jpeg, 2 GB can also be not enough.
It's all priority.
The 30D makes you feel like a better photographer, good for you. Then use the camera to make the best picture, but if you want to limit yourself, your choice.
So be it if you don't have enough money left after spending all your money on the 30D to get another CF card, that again is your choice. Go ahead and shoot at a lower resolution and cry afterwards, again, it's your choice. Come back from an oversea trip with low resolution pictures, again it's your choice.
We here gave you what we will do, listern or not, again it's your choice.
