A year ago, I had 8GB memory cards in all my cameras. I used to chuckle at the thought I'd ever need more than 8GB. When I saw slots for memory card storage in camera bags, I thought "What a gimmick."
Well, that was last year. This week, I actually filled an 8GB card. Admittedly, I was shooting JPEG & RAW, but still....
I ended up reviewing some of my pictures and deleted enough to finish my day. Today, my D5100 has a 16GB memory card with an 8GB back-up. Additionally, I'll only shoot dual pictures if the subject is very important or special.
Who'd a-thunk it?
My 16GB card will hold about 670 RAW exposures. I'll never need more than that.
