Summary: How many pictures will it store?
Review: How many pictures will it store? It is the most commonly asked question from digital camera enthusiast but usually the question that is the most difficult to get a straight answer about. Well, considering I worked in the memory industry for over 7 years I can help clarify this perplexing question and do so unbiased as I have since changed industries.

The EP Memory Mobile Storage 1GB Compact Flash CF Card, like most 1000MB cards, will store on average 1137 pictures when used with a 2 megapixel camera, 853 images when used with a 3 megapixel camera, 512 pictures when used with a 4 megapixel camera, 409 images when used with a 5 megapixel camera, and 320 pictures when used with a 6 megapixel camera. These numbers are based off the assumption that you are going to shoot your images at the highest quality JPEG setting available for the camera and understand that they are estimates and may be off by as much as 10 percent due to numerous factors including the complexity of the scene being shot and the compression algorithm used by your specific camera.

One last thing to consider when buying a 1000MB card. Do not necessarily choose the least expensive card available. A 1000MB card should be an investment. You need to consider quality, reliability, and speed with a card of this capacity. Worse case scenario would be you taking this card (and only this card) on vacation with you overseas and for some reason it gets corrupted. Then what do you do? Purchasing a high capacity card changes the game a little, just be mindful of that before you hit the buy button.

I truly hope this review was helpful to you in determining whether this card is the right capacity for your specific needs.

Summary: Buyer beware
Review: I purchased this card to use in my mp3 player. It will not work, because it is not a standard compact flash card, it is about 50% thicker than a compact flash card, no where do they tell you this, and the picture does not even show it. I would suggest to look elsewhere.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great Product
Review: I recently bought this product but almost didn't based on the reviews.

I received the product and it works great in both my digital camera and MP3 player. The size of the card is the same as the lower density cards I currently have.

Besides, if they would have sent the wrong card I am sure they would have swapped it out, their customer support number is located right on the package.

Highly recommended
