Alright.. I'll find someone to host them when i get back. Now that I have a small camera.. i should be able to get more good shots. I always miss the photo opportunities because my camera was huge. Hopefully girls are crazy on spring break.

What Rob, and everyone else with a Sony camera older than 6 months, has is the old style stick like what you posted a picture of.
Except mine isn't older than 6 months. But thanks for the slam Tony. I always look forward to it

Yah.. yours is a newer model i think. 7.2 megapixels isnt too shabby. I think mine is jsut too small for any other type of memory. I doubt i will ever even use the 5 megapixels, You really dont need anything more then 3 for most pictures.

My "big" Sony is a 5 MP (which is almost 3 years old now ) camera and I have trouble filling up 256 MB on the card. I do have a TIFF format that I can shoot in which is impressive, but eats 256 MB within 12 shots

If I shoot at 3 MP I can get over 200 pictures on the 256 MB stick, and 3 MP has way more than what I have ever needed to shoot at. 2 MP is very sufficient as well - on 2 MP I can put close to 30 minutes of video and still have enough room for roughly 100 pictures. If you're not one to download the pictures onto a hard drive and shoot at the bigger image sizes, then a 512 MB stick would be the ticket for you. If you're like me, then you can go bit cheaper with 256MB to get the job done. I also carry two 128MB back-up sticks just in case.

I would also suggest buying ScanDisk sticks instead of Sony to save some money - I don't think there is enough difference in the sticks for anyone but a tried and true techno geek profesional to know/see the difference.

But there is always peace of mind with technology, which comes with buying the biggest and best

I disagree. Sony's proprietary crap always works better than the knock-offs. Look at PS2 memory cards. The "bargain" cards always screw up after time. I've heard the same stories about SanDisk (there's no such thing as ScanDisk ) memory sticks. I just pay the extra for the peace of mind that comes with the original and proven Sony-branded stick.

Well then based on that logic the T1 would fall into your category of "everyone else with a Sony camera older than 6 months" since CNET says the T1 was released as follows:

Sony Cyber Shot DSC-T1
Release date: January 5, 2004
