As some might know I am giving my wife a digital camera for Christmas. After alot of reading and talking to friends/family with digital camera's I have determined what camera I'm going to purchase.
My question is, what type of a flash card will I need? The camera comes with a 32 MB flash card (I know is too small). For a 5.0 megapixal camera, what size compact flash card do you suggest?
Also, are there "good" and "bad" makers of flash cards or are they all pretty much standard (should I look for a name brand or save money and purchase a generic flash card)???
Also, some add-on assesory kits include a USB compact flash reader. What is this, and do I need it?
Thanks for any and all suggestions. Also, if you have a suggestion as to where to purchase it, please let me know. I've found prices for the camera I'm going to buy from $549.00 to $330.00... big spread in prices from shop to shop (online has been the best deals).
