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 Peripheral Enhancements 512MB Edge CompactFlash Card, like most 512MB cards, will store on average 568 pictures when used with a 2 megapixel camera, 426 images when used with a 3 megapixel camera, 256 pictures when used with a 4 megapixel camera, 204 images when used with a 5 megapixel camera, and 160 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.

I truly hope this review was helpful to you in determining whether this 512MB card is the right capacity for your specific needs.

Summary: WOW! Not only cheaper than dirt, but FAST!
Review: I recently purchased a 128MB EDGE CompactFlash card for my Canon A75, and was pleasantly surprised to find that the card is actually lightning-fast! I have a Canon A75, which came with a 32MB "High Speed" CF card, this EDGE card blows the doors off the Canon OEM card! I tested the two in the frame-advance mode (takes one picture after another as fast as it can until you let go of the button), and the EDGE was noticeably faster!

Not many reviews out there, so I wrote one. I bought this as a backup to my Lexar 12X card, and I can certainly say this is just as fast!
