Yes, you need a Secure Digital/MultiMediaCard. Shopzilla. Com lists more than 200 sources for Secure Digital cards, which range in price from $7 to more than $200.(Prices vary according to brand name and total memory size...the larger memory cards will obviously hold more pictures.)Cnet.

Com also has links to about 405 different Secure Digital cards, available in a variety of sizes and for a wide range of prices. reviews.cnet.com/4144-3236_7-0-1.html?qu... Sources: http://www.shopzilla.com/7S--Memory_Cards_-_att294299--493023-__cat_id--465__show--80 .

Yes froogle.google.com/froogle?q=memory+card... After many years of fantastic pictures (as long as the subject was stationary! ) my trusty Olympus D40-Zoom died - luckily at the end of a vacation. I spent about 30 hours researching a replacement that would satisfy my goals of (a) compact size, (b) standard AA batteries, (c) full manual controls, (d) outstanding image quality, (e) speed, (f) optical viewfinder.In my opinion, the Canon A540 fits the bill almost perfectly.

It's small enough to fit in a coat pocket or small belt case yet uses 2 AA batteries. Overall processing speed is blazingly fast unless you're taking flash pictures (and then you should expect about 4-5 seconds between flashes). Note that flash time is significantly better with rechargeable NiMh batteries than with standard AAs.

And, unlike some other cameras I tried, the speed of the user interface (especially during playback) is very fast. Picture quality in general is excellent, even in night situations. You have the option of ISO 80 - ISO 800 with the latter being noisy but usable.

(Would you rather miss a shot completely or have a little noise? How about the ability to take a picture in low lighting without the flash?) And, you have full manual controls, in addition to the 21 predefined scene types. I'm not sold on the usefullness of the Color Swap and Color Accent modes, but the other modes are well thought out.

Perhaps the biggest surprise was the movie mode, which offers up to 30 fps VGA quality 640x480 continuous shooting up to 1GB per clip, to the maximum size of your SD card. This is still no substitute for a high-quality camcorder, but it's a nice option to have in those situations where you just have the camera. (And note that unlike this camera, most camcorders offer some form of image stabilization.

) Note that the movie mode on the A540 is significantly more capable than the lower-megapixel twin A530 (which is limited to 2 minute clips at 15fps). I was close to getting the Canon A700, which uses the same 6MP sensor and user interface but offers a 6x optical zoom instead of a 4x zoom. In the end, after trying both cameras in the store, I settled on the A540.

Why? The A700 is ever-so-slightly larger (about 0.25 inches wider and slightly taller), and the more complicated lens takes longer to startup and to zoom. Maybe it was the lighting, but the noise quality on the A700 seemed higher than the A540, although they use the same sensor.

Perhaps this has something to do with the different lenses? Finally, the A700 doesn't offer an underwater case which I'd like to have as an option some day. In summary, Canon A540 Pros: - very fast startup and shot-to-shot speed (flash not withstanding) - excellent and speedy auto-focus even in low light (although the AF assist light can slow this down) - extremely fast user interface and playback performance, even zooming in on photos - outstanding photo quality, even in relatively low light (good color balance, noise levels at high ISO are acceptable, almost non-existent chromatic aberation) - 6 megapixel sensor, 4x optical zoom - ISO 80 to 800 (800 has noticeable noise but still usable) - surprisingly usable movie mode (unlike the A530, can record up 30fps of continuous video at 1GB sections up to size of the SD card) - outstanding user interface: options are well laid out and easy to locate, very well thought-out record and playback options - full manual controls (shutter priority, appeture priority, full manual) - custom white balance option in addition to presets - flash adjusts angle based on wide-telephoto zoom - well built case, very comfortable grip - uses SD cards (and takes advantage of high-speed SD) - uses 2 AA batteries - unbelieveable battery life (approx 350 shots on 2 rechargeable NiMh AA, with the display on) - supports optional conversion lenses and underwater case Cons (to me, all very minor): - screen while large isn't very high res (85k pixels) - flash recharge time is acceptable but not great (4 - 5sec between pictures using NiMh batteries) - preview display blanks while flash recharges - it's possible to insert the SD card upside down and you don't realize until you try to close the cover (would be easy to break the cover if you force this) - the markings for the battery orientation are difficult to read - no RAW image support, but you can select from 3 different compression ratios for image quality - dubious color accent and color swap modes Sources: http://www.amazon.com/Canon-PowerShot-Digital-Camera-Optical/dp/B000EMU4HS .

I think you can get a memory card for up to 2Gb Canon A540 can accept Secure Digital (SD) card, but apparently not the new high capacity version (SDHC). The biggest SD card you can get is 2Gb. It is plenty of storage for Canon A540 anyway.

It could affect how responseive you camera would be. No need to be the cutting edge one though: A540 is not demanding enough to ask for the cutting edge ones..

1Gb Sandisk Memory Card Canon A540 uses SD memory. You can buy the memory from Amazon. I would suggest you buy Sandisk 1Gb ultra 2 memory card.1GB memory card can store a lot of pictures 300 + and Sandisk is a reliable brand.

The first one costs $22 and I guess the shipping will be aprox $5. Also the second one has faster data transfer rates.

Can you use a memory card in a Sony digital camera.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
