Considering trashing the P&S era of my life and moving into the big leauges.

How many pictures should i expect to take in each JPEG and RAW with One GB?

And does it matter with different cameras?

Was looking at starting with a used Canon 300 or 350xt

Thanks in advance

I get about 125 RAW on a one gig card with the 300D, the 350D Xt would get less because it is a higher resolution camera, probably around 85 RAW files per 1 Gig.

It depends on resolution and quality for JPEG. But To fine JPEG at full resolution on 350D a 1GB gives you 500 takes or 112 RAW.

Camera Manuals, avaiable at www.canon.com gives you this info.

I was a little shocked after buying the D200, I only get 60 NEF's on a 1 gig card or 120 high res jpegs.

After going to www.Canon.com I noticed the talk about Firmware- if i buy a used camera should i update the firmware?

It's always advisable, but it's not difficult. Also, the camera may already have the firmware updated.

Or, your camera could be like mine and have a hack installed for further functionality ;-)

the 300D i don't think got any updated firmware, no tthe 350. the 20D did.

for the 300D you can load in the 'hack' firmware - search on undutchables or wasia (undutchables is the newer/better one).

as for pics, depends on ISO - the higher the ISO the larger the file in JPG< and I think RAW too.

On my 30D i get about 105 RAW images per Gb.
On my 300D i got 270 Large fine JPG in a gb if i remember correctly. 2.5mb each dependong on iso and image content.
