But you get into the high end Digital SLR and you require 1 gig or 2 gig cards just for all the data they store and if you shoot in RAW format as well.
Oh I could use a 512 card still but the quantity of images I end up taking with my 10d pretty much makes short use of that size card. I try to limit my card dumps since it tends to take more time than I usually have to spare on location.
