(did a quick search, didnt see anything relevant)

so are 4GB SD cards reliable and fast?

what about the no-name ones on ebay for around $60-80?

thanks!

ebay can be shiesty when it comes to no-name

I had trouble trusting a 2 gig CF card for $70 (Kingston, though), wouldn't SD be more expensive/gig? Thus... less trustworthy at lower prices?

i wouldnt trust no-names, especially from ebay...

Make sure your camera supports up to a 4gb. Many will only support 2gb, the limit of Fat16.

^^ah, thanks for the links

^hm, good point - its a nikon d50, i hadn't heard about size limitations.

however, that being said, i think i may only be getting an additional 2GB soon.

thanks!

^good choice, the d50 will not support 4gb. It will read and be able to use the card, but will not be able to use memory past 2gb.
