i can just tell you that CF cards are cheaper per Mb than xD cards.Azimuth said:hi,
introduced by a friend to come here. wanna get a 3 mp cam. which one is advisable? how much is thew diff btw CF card and XD card? pricewise and speed. thk.
Caussway said:Hi, to narrow down your choice I suggest you to consider the
following:
1. Major brandname: Canon, Olympus, Minolta, Nikon.
2. Use AA batteries. Important as proprietary batteries are expensive and may become obsolete.
3. CF storage: This is a very widely used format hence it's cheaper and
will be available for many more years. xD is still OK, if you're keen in Olympus or Fuji, because you'll buy memory card probably only once. For starting you'll need 128MB.
Recommend Canon A70.
Azimuth said:mostly for street or event and maybe some landscape and night skyline. occasional outdoor portrait. no money for DSLR yet so wanna get a hang of cheaper cam. Why 3mp so that i hv more space to work on for composition and cropping. not intending to print much. I hv a very old manual SLR but wanna see digital is how wan. :blah:
heh..bockers said:How about the Canon S1?
