Stocking Stuffers, part 2 - Christmas Memory

Perfect stocking stuffers for your favorite photographer or to add to your wish list.

Every digital photographer needs more memory. We highly recommend carrying several 2 to 4 GB cards, rather than one larger memory card. If something happens to that one large card, all your photos are lost. With photos on several cards, there’s less risk of losing memories to misplaced or damaged cards.

Many brands to choose from, but some of our favorite choices — available at local and online retailers (prices are approximate).

      SD Memory Cards

• SanDisk Ultra II SDHC, 4GB (40 CHF)
• SanDisk Extreme III SDHC, 4GB (75 CHF)

      Compact Flash Memory Cards

• SanDisk Extreme IV, 4GB (75 CHF)
• SanDisk Extreme IV, 2GB (50 CHF)
• SanDisk Ultra II, 4GB (30 CHF)
• SanDisk Ultra II, 2GB (20 CHF)

     Use Protection
     Keep memory cards safe in a secure hard case. 

• Hakuba Hard Plastic Digital Media Storage Cases (10 - 20 CHF)
