CF cards for my shiny S200

[Andre_alKel]

i'm looking into getting some bigger flash card(s) from my camera, is it worth going to a 128 card? i read a review once about a person who bought multiple 128s, seems like alot to me. right now i'm working with 2 8 meg cards. what brands are good and about how much can i expect to pay?is eBay worth looking at if i can find a new card?

thanks for your help

I use 256 MB Lexas 12x cf card. I took my s230 for a 10 day trip, took some video clips and about 130 stills. I almost ran out of memory. If you do not take video clips, maybe 128 MB is enough. It is recommended that you always use the hoghest res so that you can crop the stills later on without loosing the sharpness.

good idea, will the s200 work with a 256? there's no infor about them in the manual, what brand is yours?
thanks

The lexar card is a good one. You can get it for cheap too. I just bought two of them at Amazon ($34.00 each after the rebate) NICE.

I got my 256M Sandisk at a nearby Costco for $59 US. You can find them a bit cheaper through other on-line sources. Costco online has them here:
