What do you use?
I have 2gb (Sandisk Ultra II & Extreme III). Just ordered 2 x Mymemory Class 6 4GB, for a trip to the US.

Do you carry a spare?
I generally don't use both, so 1 is for backup.

What capacity is/are it/they?
2GB and 4GB, 8GB one was even cheaper, but I don't like the idea of keeping all eggs in one basket.

Do you carry loose or in a container?
Loose or in tiny plastic case inside appropriate pocket in bag.

Why did you choose that brand?
Sandisk is one of the more respected. Mymemory were cheap and I will rarely need so much memory (now 12 gb).

Have you ever lost images or had a fault?
No breakdowns but both have broken plastic separators between pins, still working fine. Its the issue with SD cards...
I've had them for ~2 years.

I voted neither, but I'm not really sure I'm working towards it...

Since I have lowered the standards, I might as well point out it is not I who insists on shooting sweaty young ladies.

I doubt he'll go bellow 700 euros, which is allot.
800 euros is £720, you can probably find a K20d for well bellow that price.

Thanks for the comments guys.

I was taken aback by the cone shape of that rock and found it an interesting subject. I did vertical and horizontal shots, but neither really had the punch I expected.
I did the B&W to try and emphasize the demarcation between sky and rock. It does dull down a bit doesn't it. At least with color it lightens up a bit.
A few more pics on my Flickr. Nothing good from the cliffs. Did try to snap some birds, but very few to be found... Almost risked my life on the cliff (see pic with bench).

BTW, saw a girl with a Pentax and SMC-F 70-210mm.

I see absolutely nothing wrong with people joining in order to sell stuff. Not everybody can or wants to use Ebay, and coming to a specialist forum to sell something is surely a sensible thing to do. If you think about it, if you were selling something dodgy, would you try to sell it to experts or to Joe Public?

And how is it more dangerous to deal with a new member than to buy from a classified ad in the local paper?
