Possibly try to have more 1gb CF cards. Bummer if your 2gb CF gone corrupted. Remember, shit happens! LOL ST, my past experience taught me not to shoot everything in a 2gb CF.

You can go for 50x or 66x it should be fine, for SLR cameras it's recommended to use 150x or 166x. <strong>Galvin:</strong> Rememeber read time is important too when copying 2gb of files to your PC haha <strong>Bili:</strong> Photography of course! But we need stuff to take photographs with too.. I'm personally using a Kingston Ultra card and find its write speed is a bit slow when I'm shooting continuous so I was considering upgrading to some Extreme III cards. Kinda expensive though.

I'm not a pro. I'm using a Canon A95. I'm currently using a 3-year-old-128-MB Sandisk card from my previous A70. I'm thinking of getting a 512MB or 1GB CF card. My question is: will using a 66x card make any difference in terms of shot-to-shot interval? Can I ask a question about CF cards? I’m not a pro. I’m using a Canon A95.
