Have any of my faithful reader(s) used the digital flash memory cards for cameras, camcorders, etc.?
I can’t figure out how large I should buy. I realize size always matters :-), but I hate to buy too little.
I can’t get a handle on how many photos something like 4gb holds or the time length for videos?
I am deferring to the power of the peeps – share your wisdom.

I vaguely remember buying a 16M card for our old camera (my new has built in memory) and we never ran out of space. We didn't take a lot of videos however. 4G should be plenty though.
Thank you!
I have a 2G card on my camera, and though I periodically maintain (remove) photos, I often leave photos on there forever, until I'm absolutely sure that I've burned them to CD or put them on my external hard drive. For the first time since I bought the camera, 2 years ago, my card filled up.
4G is tons, as Kim said, AND I have a friend with a fancy new camera and a 16G card that his computer can not read...he has to hook the camera up to his laptop to get the photos off of the card, which is time consuming, even though the laptop is fairly new.
(My card filled up on Brian's wedding day...you should have seen me hitting the delete button and taking off about 200 photos, trying to race the courthouse calling!)
I have a 2G card for my Nikon that will hold upwards of 900 photos. I have only taken short-30 sec to 1 min video but that has not reduced my memeory by much. It does matter how many pixals your camera is using also. More pixals-more memory card used.
