what size memory card should I get for my powershot A540?

Answer 1

Just to give you an idea: 1 GB holds around 700 photos on the A540. 2 GB should hold 1400 while a 512 MB should hold 350. Pick one based on your shooting habits and how accessible you are to downloading.

Answer 2

Because of the price levels I would recomend getting a 2gig card. You can generialy pick up a fast 2 gig for around $30, bang for the buck it's the best value. With this type of camera you'll get over 350 pictures easily on the card.

the salesperson is an fool. Your digicam became released in early 2006, and easily cameras released early 2007 and later, have compatibility with SDHC (intense ability SD) memory playing cards. So, you go with to take the cardboard lower back and get a 2GB card (or 2). verify you format it (interior the digicam Menu) in the previous you take advantage of it the first time. p.s. in case you had regarded on your person preparation guide (specs) you'll have learnt that your digicam only accepts SD memory playing cards.
