Pretec and Sandisk Releasing 16GB CompactFlash This Year

Digital Camera, Others

These 16GB CF cards are even more expensive than many cameras!

What’s the next step up from the current 8GB CompactFlash? 16GB of course! Unfortunately, the suggested retail price of US$1,049 seems to be a bit more than what you’ll pay for two 8GBs. I don’t know about you but for photography, I would rather have eight 2GBs. Just so that if one of the card fails, I lose just 2GBs worth of pictures instead of 16GB! But then again, anyone able to fork out a grand for a tiny little card must be shooting with a Hasselblad H3D-39 and need the space for its 39-megapixel files.
