sandisk cf

hi i just got A CANON EOS 400D i want to buy a memory card for it. i have my eye on a 8 gig card is it good?

its a SanDisk 8GB/15MB Ultra II CF Card, its cheap bout $ 80

but there another 8 gig card also sand disk but “extreme” not ultra. which is alot more expensive

is it neccesary to spend extra on a card cause i take alot of photos and dont want the picture to be comprimise at all.

The Ultra will be just as good. I have 3 cards presently:

ScanDisk 1G Ultra II
Kingston 2G
ScanDisk 4G Extreme (II or II, I can’t remember)

And the only difference I notice between them is the size and sometimes the speed.

For instance, my extreme card write the photos very quickly. Which means, I can take photo after photo with pause for several instances before my camera must stop to “catch up”. This is because the images are being written to the card. When viewing my photos from the cards, it also reads them quicker.

BUT, those are very subtle differences that I have only noticed because I have three cards to compare. If only had one of them, ANY one of them would be just as good.

The Ultra is a great card for the price. I only bought the 4G extreme because it was 60% off at a store closing out of town.
