Help me choose a digital camera - Page 2

I'm curious about something, my G5 is supposed to have a USB 2 interface, but images still seem to take as long to transfer as they did on the A80 which is USB 1.1 and it's definately in a USB 2 port. Would it be down to the CF card transfer rate?

Don't CF cards go bigger than SD?
I use my CF card between my Ipaq and Cannon EOS 300D (now there's a sexy camera) but a little over budget for you

CF cards go up to like 4 gig or something stupid.

Well I've got a 1GB, and on the lowest quality setting I can take over 1000 pics with my camera.
Quite handy as I can store a couple of DVDs on it to watch on my ipaq and still have space to take plenty of pics.

I can fit around 190 (ish) photo's in RAW format on 1 gig at full resolution.

Without doubt it has to be Cannnon, as for which one yer pays yer money and yer takes yer choice.
