[PinkChick]

we are going to nissi bay in 5 weeks for friends wedding, i have two memory cards for my digi camera, but alltogether will prob only hold 75 pics..is there anywhere in nissi bay/close by where i could have them down loaded so i am able to transfer them to my computer(ie on disc) when i get back so i can go david bailey mad????

bump

PinkChick, a completely different approach:
Why don't you buy a larger memory card?

Even 1GB ones (=loadsa pics) you can get
quite cheaply these days.

Sorry if silly intervention..

ive just spent £40 on the bigger one(hold about 55 pics) and cant afford to buy another as this would normally be adequate, i couldnt justify another £30 plus just for the hol.

bump incase anyones around who would know??

Wow! What kind of a camera have you got?
And what's the size of the pics?
For us 1-2MB is usually more than sufficient
so we get 500-1000 on a 1GB card.

Anyway, bump bump for McDreamy..

??hmm, its a sony, but cant remember the name right now?..the memory card i most recently bought was £40 and it only holds about 50-60 pics???, it is set on max pixels tho?...have i been had?, would i get more if i decreased the pixel size? and would this alter the pic quality a lot?

500-1000!..i need to find out what ive got and why im not getting that amount!

ok, the memory acrd says 128 MB??
and camera is sony cybershot???

I also get loads more - about 800 per card. The only thing I can think of is that you may be recording them in a tiff format (ie. uncompressed) rather than as jpegs.

A 128 meg card cost 40 quid?

sounds like i need to either a-find someone who knows what to do to change it..or b- get lost in the instruction book

yeah, from sony centre?

is that cheap? or pricy?

Very pricey indeed! My camera uses compact flash (not a Sony) and I can get 128mb for about 4 quid! I could get a 4 GB card for that money!

fecking hell!!

so how many pics 'should' i be getting from this one then???

£40 for 128MB?
Was that this year or some time ago?

What type is it?
CompactFlash (CF) or Secure Digital (SD)?
Check the size, too.

1GB CF card on Amazon for a fiver plus postage

2 GB Secure Digital (SD) card on Amazon for £7 plus postage

it was from sony centre just before christmas..what a fool i am!

It's a famous industry trick, don't worry,
has happened to all of us!

and you can get a 1gb sony memory stick from amazon for £13...

erm, only thing on actual camera is5.1 mega pixel...mpegmovievx....dsc-t3 optical 3x and pro memory stick dup..i can get box out later tonight??

sorry, am typing very slowly (ds asleep on me)

What does it say on the memory card?
Does it look like the ones I linked to?
