Do you guys sell CF cards for Canon DSLR's? Need a couple of 2gb ones!

I can get you some 2GB ones for about $43ea from my PC wholesalers, or $28ea for 1GB ones... dunno if that's cheap compared to other places though??

thAT'S A GOOD PRICE DEPENDING ON SPEED AND AUTHENTICITY. tHERE'S A LOT OF CHEAP CHINESE TRASH ABOUT - oops sausage fingers strikes again - sorry!

The best you can get is Sandisk Extreme IV in my opinion but they're around the hundred mark

I'm talking 266X or something like that. Made a huge difference I can tell you. Used to think the camera was a bucket of snot - turns out the CF card was the issue after almost 2 years of perseverance.

I can punch out 4 frames per second at highest resolution (9 Megapixels & 5-8Mb of data) and it keeps up no probs. Costs about 2-3 times what your taLKING THOUGH (done it again) so if you don't need it there's no point in paying for it I'd reckon.

PS which DSLR you got? I've got the 400d and it seems to go ok with the standard speed cards, but having said that I've never tried the faster ones
