What do you think: Ultra II, Extreme III 15mb version, or Extreme III 30mb version? Which one will cover the full spectrum of needs for a S90?

I'm trying to keep costs down, but I also don't want to short-change myself from any capabilities...

Thanks!

The S90 doesn't shoot many fps so i went with a 8Gb slower card. That way i can take 500 shots before its full. I just pop it in my card reader and go and make a cup of tea :D

I tend to agree that the S90 does not call for a really high performance memory card simply because you can't shoot very fast with it. I would choose based on reliability and durability, since this little camera will probably see some rough treatment.

Perhaps someone who has used the movie function can comment on the memory card requirement for shooting video.
