camera memory card question

[IowaBoy]

I have a 12.1 mega pix. camera and I am wanting to know about how many pictures and video a 2GB card can hold.

I'd say anywhere between 400 to 1000 depending on the resolution you choose.

yeah it all depens on the resolution - but as its 12mp, it will be 4000x3000 and mine can hold 1100 photos on all high settings - i have a 2gb micro sd with micro sd adapter

freakin' sweet. all for the price of $6.49 (thank you walmart).

Careful with those cheap cards - they're fine to use as long as you back your stuff up, but they can fail surprisingly quickly! I'd use it as a temporary storage medium and copy all your photos across to your PC as soon as you can.

How about a Kingston 2GB SD Memory Card for $7.88?

What do you mean by "legit"? If you mean good, then to be honest you get what you pay for (i.e. I'd personally expect it to fail pretty quickly.) As suggested above I'd be much more tempted to pay a bit more and go with a named brand such as the kingston.

well does the card look like a good brand or some cheap rip off store brand?
