Introduction
First of all, it’s good to have something to hold all these things - a case. Remember you will need to take some accessories so you need to buy a case to carry all of them. Everyone has specific requirements, but you should never forget batteries or a memory card. Let’s look at the memory cards, what about them?
Is one small card enough?
Well, it depends what would you call a smaller card. Everything less than 1 GB (1024 MB right?) is smaller. First thing you need to realize is, how long you are going to be without a computer. For instance, a 5.0 M pixel camera can take 400-500 pictures on 1 GB card at best quality. Lower, 3.0 M pixel camera should be able to squeeze 600-800 pictures on the same card. At 8.0 M pixel you get 240-320 pictures. Keep in mind that this is just theoretical, different models have different compression and therefore values vary.
The question remains – is it enough? Actually, there is never enough storage. So at standard length of vacation, 10 days, you can take 20-80 pictures a day (calculate according to your camera) which is really not that enough, but it depends on how you take pictures. If you are a consuming type that likes to lie in a sun and have a dozen of pictures on a beach with a palm and a hotel, yep, 1 GB or even 512 MB could be enough for you. But, if you are more like me, a person who likes nature loves every flower and is in awe by the local architecture and than takes a detail of it… Well, you need more!
And then, if you are in a special situation such as having a baby on the trip! Baby has to be photographed from every angle and every time or friends hanging out in unbelievable local pubs… Think about that.
