<<Dont forget that with flash, you are only keeping your good pictures. So, where on a good day on vacation I might get through a couple of rolls of 35mm, with flash I might end up with 10 or 15 pictures rather than 72, of which 60 or so are junk or duplicates. So a flash card that holds 100 or 200 pictures will have a capacity several times that of the equivalent in 35mm film. In effect with flash I have discarded the bad ones that with 35mm I had to pay to have developed and printed before I threw them away!>> I do the same. With my 128 mg. SNDK card, my 2.1 million pixel camera can take 144 pictures. Also, I can throw away pictures that didn't come out when I am trying to save space. But I always carry a second just in case. They are so tiny....recently took a trip to Patagonia where there wasn't film available....much easier to pack along a few CF cards than rolls of film.
