Am I right in thinking that a 2 meg card is the biggest that this camera will accept. Cheers DB no so what is the largest...... > no no - he's not correct or no - it won't work >> no > [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > > no - it won't work There is only ONE question in the OP's message. How can it be misinterpreted? I don't see the ambiguity!

I don't see the ambiguity! Strictly interpreted, the answer 'no' would mean "no, you are not right to think that a two meg card is the biggest supported". Other answers in the thread seem to imply otherwise. >>>> no >>> [quoted text clipped - 10 lines] > think that a two meg card is the biggest supported". Other answers in the > thread seem to imply otherwise. You are absolutely correct! That's the only "correct" interpretation, regardless of what question others thought they were answering :-) SignaturePosted via a free Usenet account from http://www.teranews.com > You are absolutely correct!

And although I have no personal knowledge regarding this issue, based on most of the answers in this thread, the answer to his question is "Yes", i.e., he was right in thinking that :-) SignaturePosted via a free Usenet account from http://www.teranews.com > >> You are absolutely correct!

You are right ray, though you seem to be the one that initiated this "side" thread with... >>>> no - he's not correct >>>> or >>>> no - it won't work In any case, I agree with you. Enough trivialities. Last post on this... SignaturePosted via a free Usenet account from http://www.teranews.com Duhr.........what a thickie I am.......Yes, 2 Gig was what I really meant,lol oops.. DB :) > Am I right in thinking that a 2 meg card is the biggest that this camera > will accept. > > Cheers > > DB My experience tallies with that. I have many 2Gb that work fine, but the only 4Gb card I tried did not work. Of course, YMMV. -- Jeff R. > > Am I right in thinking that a 2 meg card is the biggest that this camera > > will accept.

He has a limited set of ideas/phrases, a reflection of his limited intellectual capacity/insight. > Interesting leap from what I said... > > I thought the post was about the D50, which is an excellent camera by any > standards. Just thought id highlight the fact that Nikon are lightyears behind Canon. >> Interesting leap from what I said... >> >> I thought the post was about the D50, which is an excellent camera by any >> standards. > > Just thought id highlight the fact that Nikon are lightyears behind Canon. Uh huh. ...and you are welcome to your opinion (not "fact", BTW.) But who cares, anyway - fer Crissake. Do they take better pictures? -- Jeff R. >> Interesting leap from what I said... >> >> I thought the post was about the D50, which is an excellent camera by any >> standards. > >Just thought id highlight the fact that Nikon are lightyears behind Canon. Irrelevant. The best camera is the one in your hand that you can operate when an opportunity for a photo presents itself Some of my best photos were taken with a Kodak Instamatic with 126 film. For health and safety reasons no one will ever be able to get where I did to take those photos 20 years ago. I was lucky when I took them at the time (young and stupid :-) The "best camera" a friend of mine has is a Zenith. It lets him take photos where a Canon of Nikon would get you arrested in some parts of the world. BTW He also has an awesome array of Nikon kit too. . I recently saw a letter in a magazine from someone saying he "needed" to upgrade from his Nikon D70s as it was not good enough to enter competitions with. Well I have just won a national completion using a D70s Blaming the tools always was the sign of a poor workman. Quoting pure numbers like pixels is pointless. For most things 6Mp is plenty . Actually another friend of mine say he can see no point in upgrading past about 10-12MP. (His other camera is a surveillance satellite :-) Signature\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\ \/\/\/\/\ Chris Hills Staffs England /\/\/\/\/ /\/\/ chris@phaedsys.org www.phaedsys.org \/\/\ \/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/ Truly funny there Chris. There has always been I would say anger instead of hate for those who chose another name brand then the one they own. Canon vs Minolta and so on. Like everything else, they are all tools and its to each his own. What works for one might not work for another. But to get angry over it makes no sense. We are here because we all have something in common and thats Photography. No matter what the tools are, its the results that count. There was also slightly less anger when it came to Darkroom equipment way back when and one preferred one name brand over another but nobody got bent out of shape over it like these people do now over DSLR vs P&S, or in those days it was SLR vs Range Finder. The argument never stops.

(1sd mk III v's D3) or Nikon: 0.7 mp short and 2 years too late (5D v's D3) Gentleman pleez.......... Looks like the maximum card is def 2 gig..........and it looks like the Canon folk hate the Nikon folk......the Nikon folk dont like the Canon folk............. Talk about stuck records...........this conversation went on 25 year ago with this one......my Spectrum is better than your Vic 20 and 15 years ago..........my Amiga is better than your Atari ST........................ now see if we can work out which words to delete and insert........ Nowt changes eh!.............seriously tho......thanks for the input from everyone................ Years ago when I got into photography people were a bit more accomodating of others...........I had a (wait for it.......................Practica MTL3)......and it was great........nowt too fancy and well capable of taking a good shot. Someone once said to me...........it's not the camera that takes the picture but the photographer...........I've taken great pics with crap cameras and crap shots with great cameras..........Then again..........could just be me.......... Thanks all.............sparring over...............til' the next camera comes along............... Cheers Dave :) 'Struth. Dave. The arguement between nikon and canon is much like picking fly sh.t from pepper. Or ford vs. chevy Or Coke vs. Pepsi. Or jesus vs. mohamad. It's useless. Fanatics is fanitics no mater how you slice them. Those who beleive that their very own personal decisions, be it cars drinks cameras or sky pilots, are all guilty of hubris. Second class thinkers all. If there is one sound universal principal that can tie all peoples on the planet togeather on any subject at all it's this: There is no one size which fits all. Thats just the way it is. Accept it. Bannish hate. Go with what works for you and extend the same courtesy to others as you would have them visit upon you. This ain't brain science or rocket surgery. It's just common sence. UW Exactly..... Sermon closed.... Cheers Dave :) > Gentleman pleez.......... > > Looks like the maximum card is def 2 gig..........and it looks like the > Canon folk hate the Nikon folk......the Nikon folk dont like the Canon > folk............. Personally, I have nothing for or against nikon. I have a minolta film slr and am thus attracted to the sony alpha. I have had good experiences with Kodak - currently using a Kodak P850 because it fits my needs better than a dslr. I do not even consider canon - because of their total lack for all things Linux - when they support Linux, I will consider canon - but not until. I also eschew fuji because of their past business practices. Hate has nothing to do with it. > Talk about stuck records...........this conversation went on 25 year ago > with this one......my Spectrum is better than your Vic 20 [quoted text clipped - 22 lines] > > Dave :) Maybes Hate was a bad choice of words........but the eternal argueing looks like its here for good.!
