Comments:
<0> it was regular $220, $120 instant savings
<1> the 350D will write a 4MB jpg on the ultra2 chip in less than a second
<2> Sandisk is a good brand.
<0> so it was on par with the other 2gb SD they carry
<3> jet: you should put together a shopping list for when you're down here :)
<4> i picked up some 2gb sandisk "32x" sd card. I paid $200 but I was jacked. Dont buy that **** at Tiger Direct. Newegg is much cheaper. Anyway its really fast.
<1> yeah, I've been using sandisk
<3> go to costco :)
<4> i like the sandisk brand. all my SD cards and my mp3 player are sandisk branded
<1> I got mine there. i think they only have 1GB
<2> You must have been drunk or otherwise impaired to buy **** from Tiger Direct.
<3> I trust sandisk. that is what they were selling at costco. didn't notice the 2gig price
<1> or canuckian ?
<1> canucks seem to use tiger a lot
<4> SD70MAC: Yeah i wasnt aware how much of a ripoff they really are till that day.
<4> newegg seems really hard to beat. their prices own.
<2> z0g: Stick close. We have lots to teach newbies.
<3> I don't know why I am worrying about this. Today's real shopping was about a bedroom set :)
<1> geeez, http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16820171051
<1> 2GB CF Ultra for $80
<3> and I liked something, although not ready to buy it
<0> http://www.futureshop.ca/catalog/proddetail.asp?logon=&langid=EN&sku_id=0665000FS10063101&catid=11433 <- that's what I got for $100
<0> I've noticed hardly anyone actually SAYS what speed SD is
<0> unless its stamped on the ****ing chip
<3> well, guy at costco said their prices just recently dropped a lot
<3> but hell, he was a store clerk. :)
<0> http://www.futureshop.ca/catalog/proddetail.asp?logon=&langid=EN&sku_id=0665000FS10058295&catid=11433
<0> like that one says 60X
<0> so how fast is SD when a speed isn't listed?
<5> Wait a ****ing minute. Comcast silver package went up in price, but I had a contract. Why do I have to pay a higher price while I'm under contract?
<5> That's HORSE****
<2> Warp speed.
<3> $313 for the exz750. not bad. lets see what newegg can do
<1> oh wait, OUT OF STOCK.
<1> yeah, ITS REALLY CHEAP! BUT WE DONT HAVE ANY.
<0> http://www.futureshop.ca/catalog/proddetail.asp?logon=&langid=EN&sku_id=0665000FS10068689&catid=11433 150X
<0> so how fast is "standard"
<2> skoal: You probably don't. I would read the contract. Then contact them about breach of contract.
<3> you canucks get so raped. it's obscene
<2> WARP SPEED.
<1> IIRC, standard CF was around 1MB/second, and the ultraII stuff is 5-7MB/sec
<0> or the contract states that they can increase the rate at any time
<1> oh, 9-10MB/sec is specified speed (probably raw speed)
<1> I guess 5-7 is what I actually see with files on the Ultra CF in an adapter
<1> ouch, sandisk's webpile says '150K is 1X for testing purposes'
<1> so they claim the ultra stuff is 60X+ faster
<3> I won't even look at sony cameras. **** them and their propriatory mem
<0> http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16820180627 see all it says is Fast transfer rate for reliable copy/download/backup
<2> WEBPILE!
<0> so wtf?
<3> out of stock :)
<3> they went Fast
<3> HAH. newegg's "weekend sale
<3> on this cam is $6 more than dell. but dell charges tax
<6> oh yeah
<6> that remind me I need to get some 2gb cf love going on
<3> I need to sell my kodak dc4800.
<3> or give it to my niece if she doesn't have a digicam
<3> pretty sure the neph has one
<0> CF ... how quaint and positively retro :)
<6> that was a great camera in its day
<3> jet: hahaha
<6> Jet: most consumer DSLR's still use CF as its reliable
<6> i'll take CF in a DSLR over a consumer P&S any day =P
<0> I know, I'm just messing around
<6> (though my P&S uses it also)
<6> hell
<6> I washed a CF card a year ago and it still works!
<3> k. dell is $333 delivered. lets see what newegg is
<2> B&H is a good company too. I bought the lense cleaner peerce recommended from there.
<6> lense =(((
<2> What?
<6> Im goign to reg 'itslensnotlensedammit.com'
<3> hmm. $.99 3day shipping. think newegg wins
<1> its lens
<6> it will be lense soon at this rate
<3> ever heard of this stuff: TwinMOS Ultra-X 2GB Secure Digital (SD) Card Model FSD2GBU - Retail
<3> $93
<2> It isn't a lense?
<3> oh wait. for my use I don't need 2gig. that like 400pics full res.
<3> although, if I play with the movie mode. hmmm
<2> Barry: That is about what I get with my 1 gigglebyte card.
<1> i get about 240 8Mpix JPG pictures on 1GB
<3> eh, like sd said. only 40 more than a 1gig
<1> if I did raw, however, I'd get a lot fewer
<3> yeah. pics on a 7mp are close to 5mb each
<3> how fast does movie mode go through mem?
<1> really? my 8Mpx are 3.3-4MB
<1> mostly around 3.5-3.6
<3> (Read: 10MB/sec; Write: 8MB/sec) is that fast for sd?
<3> I'm gonna get to use that sd slot in my lappy afterall :)
<1> annoys me that my wife's dell has a SD but not a CF
<1> although I guess a PCMCIA slot is a CF slot w/ a $5 adapter
<3> hmm. think I won't buy sd for now. play with the included 256. worse thing happens is the price of the stuff comes down more while I procrastinate
<7> ?? 265 will give you 10 photos
<3> 50ish
<3> full res
<8> would a pciexpress card with a 250w ps slow down a pc?
<7> at very low resolution ...
<3> no, at full res
<3> at 3072x2304
<3> 55 shots
<3> at fine mode
<2> ac: It would affect reliability, not speed.
<3> the highest level
<3> 108 at normal mode
<7> i see ... what camera is it?
<8> well this pc takes forever to boot up
<8> and i reformatted it brand new mobo and video card
<3> 207 at economy
<8> and its slow as hell now
<3> http://www.steves-digicams.com/2005_reviews/ex-z750.html
<4> wtf is Friendster and how the hell did i get on it
<3> hmm. 8 minutes of highest level video
<3> not bad for a little 256 mem
<7> nice cam .. looks like it has real zoom
<3> optical and digital. what's unique about that?
<7> digital zoom ****s
<3> I know. but what cam doesn't have some optical zoom?
<4> Some \
<7> the first xslim i got
<3> i see
<3> well, I'd not even consider one without optical zoom
<7> got the s80 for xmas
<7> sweet. :D
<4> i read about some nanoservo/nanolens technology that will pretty soon give cellphone cams optical zoom
<3> k. steve's review seems to like this. I think I'll like it too.
<3> but, are panasonics to be considered?
<3> oh wait. they didn't do mpeg. I want one with that ability
<4> i like panasonic as a brand name quite a bit, however, i dunno if id choose them over Nikon or Canon.
<3> well, I'm considering them against casio :)
<3> so canon or nikon don't come into it :)
<4> i cant see myself buying a digicam from casio. i only know them for making digital watches :/
<3> I wouldn't even go 7mp if the 5 had better features
<7> most semipros photographers and pros seem to stay with canon and nikon ..
<4> i had a casio databank watch when i was a kid. total freaking nerd watch.
<9> yeah well
<9> back in the 50's i wore thick rimmed gl***es and a pocket protector
<3> time marches on. electronics companies have gotten into lots fo things. hell, I'd have never imagined buying a dell plasma tv a few years ago
<3> now I got a great tv from dell :)
<9> i have a great AKAI TV
<4> but they dont really make alot of their accessories
<3> well, true dat. it is LG phillips
<3> but the point being, what casio made 20 years ago means nothing :)
<3> to today
<4> the monitor on my desk is a Dell P1110 which is entirely made by Sony, but just has the Dell logo slapped on front.
<7> this is true about the digital cameras .. but you cant' beat canon for lens technology
<3> I am a very casual picture taker
<9> i have a SONY VAIO PC
