the images you take. These can be taken out of the camera and replaced
by other cards. Several different card types are in use and are not
interchangeable. You can read more about storage in the feature on

storage but can also be used by other devices. Comes in two version
Type I and Type II. Compact Flash Card Type I max capacity is 256 MB
