Anyone know good web-site to learn memory-storage cards for cameras?

I know quite a lot about film speeds from say 25 ASA to say 600 ASA and how to use on 35mm SLR'S. Thse cards are a new ball game which I'm finding hard to grasp.

You can Google them or go directly to the manufacturer's site. Biggest names are Sandisk, Lexar, Transcend, etc. As in film, you have differences in capacity and in speed.





Capacity - the larger (2, 4, 8, 12, and 16 GB) allow you use your camera's highest quality setting and put lots of them on the card before it fills up. You then copy to your computer and start over again. Compact Flash cards currently have the largest and fastest capabilities.





Speed - most manufacturer's measure and promote things like 133x, 80x, 150x. More important is the read and write speed. The faster you camera can transfer the data to the card, the quicker you can take the next photo. The best Sandisk currently being sold is the Extreme III, which has a 20MB per second transfer rate. Their new Extreme IV is just hitting the market and very scarce. It has a 40MBS transfer rate. Pretty damn impressive.
