Does it really make a difference what size memory card you use? To your camera, no; to you, however, it could mean the difference between getting the picture you want or running out of space on your memory card.
Take into account how many pictures you usually take at a time, when choosing the most logical size . Your needs if you are a world traveler will be different from those of a person who only uses the camera for holiday get-togethers. How big the files are of the pictures you take, you also need to decide . Smaller file such as pictures for online will took less space and enable you to fit more on a card. Larger file for printing will need more space.
128MB is usually enough, if you have a 2 mega-pixel camera, . For a 3 or 4-megapixel
camera, a 128MB or 256MB memory card is usually plenty. For a 5-megapixel camera, start with a 256MB memory card.
Here’s a rough guideline of how many pictures a flash memory card can hold:
*A 128MB flash memory card can store about 21-41 large, uncompressed images or up to 100 small, compressed images. This is good enough for most photographic needs.
* 42-82 large pictures and nearly 200 smaller ones, a 256MB card will store about twice . Once in a lifetime events might warrant this size just to make sure you don’t miss that one special moment, important events like weddings .
If you are planning a long vacation with a lot of picture taking, this might be best with the capacity to hold 168-328 large images and a total of close to 800 smaller images, a 1GB card has room for nearly 4 times as much as a 256MB card.
Remember you can always use several smaller cards and just change them when they are full, whatever you decide . So don’t panic if you don’t have a large memory card, It only takes a few seconds to switch memory cards .
