That looks like a real good deal to me. As far as how many pictures you can get on a memory card, it all depends on if you shoot raw or jpeg or both, and at what resolution. Your camera manual should give you all that info.

That looks to be a great deal..... But I am wondering "why so cheap?" I just get a little nervous when I see deals that seem to good to be true...... But Amazon is a decent place to order from....
Good luck...

That is because Amazon displays the highest MSRP for the product when it was brand spanking new and never changes that MSRP. That way they make it look like you are getting the deal of a lifetime. Save 79% my big fat &%$$. I paid the same price from Circuit City a while back for two of the exact same cards.
Circuit City everyday price = $119.99 (on sale for $59.99 right now)
Best Buy everyday price = $90.99 (on sale for $81.99 right now)
B&H everyday price = $59.95.
The price is a good one and Amazon is a decent place to buy from, but the person that writes their adds obviously was a used car salesman in a previous life.

I just bought a couple of those cards at B&H a month ago. Sandisk has a rebate offer that expires on 3/30/08. If you're going to order them, get them now so you can send in for the rebate before it expires.

It looks to me like it's too late for a rebate, by almost 2 weeks.

OOPs, that was supposed to say 3/30/08. I updated it. When you click on the link at B&H is says it expires on 3/30/08. I just looked on the rebate form, and it says on there that they must be postmarked by 4/27/08.
