I've been using my wife's card. I'm too embarrassed to say the size. I will pick up one for me Sunday. Fry's has a 2G on sale for $99(PQ1).

You will be surprised at how fast you go through CF cards, especially if you shoot in continous mode. That 2GB should be fine for you. 7D, 10D, Canon EFS 18-55mm modded

That's what I'm talking about. You guys are the best. I wasn't even thinking about write speeds. Now I'll look for 40x or faster.

The problem is with cards up to certain serial number so check their web site. I would get 2x 1GB rather than 1 x 2GB of whatever brand you choose. More flexible and allows for one going kaput!! https://photography-on-the.net …/showthread.php?t=1203740

, which is the Frys web site. They have PQI cards that are 40x. I think this would be fast enough. So make sure its the 40x card. If its 4x you will be unhappy.
