I have the CF type you showed, a 2gb and a 4gb.

Watch the first one for your boy's camera. Not sure what the HC part of SDHC is. Does he need one that fast and that big?

I got one of these for my compact and it's ok.

Yeah, probably early days, i'm sure the early flash cards were disk rather than solid.

The word Flash in computing implies solid state, ie chips.

I think. /forum/smilies/nerd_smiley.gif

Google....

CF did switch to NAND type memory later on. The IBM format, which used CF Type II, was not solid-state memory.

Iremember some time back when i was trying to convince Phil Smith the advantages of Digi, and this was one of the early disadvantages (CFII), going back a few years now.

This is the Compact Flash card that most of the pros use. Totally unnecessary for anyone but a pro or a photography tart, or for anyone who doesn't need ultimate processing speed.
