512MB CompactFlash Cards for $132 Gizmodo tells us about another sweet deal today.

Viking 512MB CompactFlash memory cards are now just $131.44 after rebate at Amazon. Remember when these used to cost hundreds and hundreds of dollars?

What a bargain! Why would you shop anywhere else when Amazon has all these sweet deals lately!? The best part is I'm actually in the market for a new CF card. Our Canon PowerShot G2 (which I highly recommend) came with a 32MB card, which holds about 26 photos or so. With a 512MB card, you could probably take ~400 photos - now that's a role of film! We're hoping to get a Photo Printer soon (I've been looking at Canon's s900), then we'll never have to get our film developed again! Posted in General at Dec 06 2002, 06:25:01 AM MST 2 Comments

I agree. I have gotten to the point where I always look at Amazon first. I used to simply buy books and music, but this year I've bought garden equipment, housewares, and electronics. If your camera can only take 26 pictures with 32mb of storage, then your pictures must be high resolution. Do you take all your pictures at the highest resolution?

I try to take them all at a pretty high resolution so I can alter them if I ever want to. It's a 4 megapixel camera and I just use the default settings. They come out pretty big, but iPhoto does the love and manipulates them accordingly for the web. It's the best photo app I've ever seen - simplest too. If there's any advanced stuff I need, I'll fire up Photoshop.
