Ran across an old school Canon S10 for $15 on ebay a few minutes ago.... Naturally I snapped it up. :)
The S10 really was the beginning of an awesome line of cameras, and I've missed mine since it was stolen years ago - it's probably kinda silly but I'm thrilled to be getting one again.
Now for the question, the camera uses CF II cards, and it's my understanding that newer CF cards should be backwards compatible, but there is probably a size limitation for the S10...
Anyone know what I'm gonna be able to use for CF cards in this thing? I might be soliciting a WTB for a old tiny CF card soon... :)
Just for retro fun I do think I can get my hands on a microdrive, which has known compatibility issues with this camera, but I'd probably prefer to actually use it with a CF card. |

I checked the specs at DPReview but it only says it takes Types I and II ... my Olympus takes the same size pictures (1600x1200 = 1.92MP) and I get 50-70 pictures on a 64MB card ...  Isaac has a Canon A80 which also uses CF cards -- it's a little later vintage and is about 4MP, and it can use a 1GB card for sure ... your camera probably will too ... |

I have some 128 Mb and maybe some 256 Mb CF cards if you would like them.

Thanks guys, I'll let you know, I suspect I may very well need to take one of you up on this, as my current inventory doesn't go below 2GB. |
