Hi folks, I just received my CP995 about two weeks ago and I would
like to get a larger memory card. Does any one have any experiance
with either of these compact flash cards? They seem to be the least
expensive that I have found. Any input would be a great help and
appreciated. Thanks Ben Wetzel
I got 3 128MB CF Mr. Flash Cards on three seperate orders - NewEgg shipped same or next day and the cards have been working fine. Used them to take over 3,500 shots on a 2 week vacation to Europe....Hi folks, I just received my CP995 about two weeks ago and I would

Cheaper isn't always better. I've found that out when I was a Purchasing Agent for a college for several years. You need to balance out those features that will serve you best. Many of the compact flash cards have 4x speed. That means when you purchase this card you are buying the cheapest that is out there. None are any slower than that. You should be able to buy one of those at rock bottom prices. On the other hand I've found 128 MB compact flash at 20x speed. That means it is 5 times faster then the cheapest. The speed difference shows up especially when the camera buffers the shot to the card. The slower the bus or path the longer it will take to get on with it. The speed also shows up when you download the images to your computer. If you don't mind all the waiting around, no problem. I found it was worth a few more dollars to step up to the 20x card. It is a burner! Surprisingly, not too much more $$ than the others! World's fastest right now. Also, with manufactures ready to turn loose the 512MB and 1GB versions of compact flash, these small cards are going to become a dime a dozen. They just don't really hold the capacity without compression. When you compress images you ultimately lose resolution and your pictures suffer over it. Anways it's your call.Hi folks, I just received my CP995 about two weeks ago and I would

I'd have to agree. I ordered a Mr. Flash 128 and got it only two days later from Newegg. I've taken a couple hundred pics with it and to be honest, the speed difference for me has been unnoticeable. Like Jerry said, I am sure you can spend the bucks to get a top of the line card, but for my uses, the Mr. Flash is excellent and I plan to order another one. ;-)Well all I can say Richard is my Mr. Flash High Speed 128mb from
NewEgg. Works great. Fast downloads and work perfect in the camera.
NO problems at all.. Can't say there are not some better but I
can't find fault in this one.. Jerry

Over the weekend, buy.com had the Kingston 256mb card for $133. Dunno if this deal is still available....you would need this coupon: http://www.us.buy.com/retail/coupon.asp?prid=81293567Thank you for all of your input. It has helped me a lot. Thanks
