IMAGE STORAGE DEVICES FOR DIGITAL PHOTOGRAPHY

Friday, December 16, 2005

I currently have 2 compact flash(CF) cards with me totaling to 3GBs. I normally shoot raw images and both cards together can store around 375 images. Come January, I will be going on a trip around the Indian Himalayas lasting more than a month, and I was getting worried about the storage capacity. I was toying with the idea of burning CDs often and deleting the images from the CF card, which would work fine because I can find lot of internet centers where I am going, where I can manage to download images and burn them to CD. But I wanted a better solution that could help me store my images without bothering to go searching for such a place. That’s when I did some searching around on the internet and figured out that there are many options of storage devices which can offer 20 to 40GB storage without burning a deep hole in the pocket. I am still figuring out what is the best option, but am relying on the compilation of storage devices and reviews from Steve's Digicam for making a decision. If you are looking for some storage devices, it is an excellent place to search for options that suit you.
